The HyperX QuadCast 2 refines everything that made the original such a favorite amongst gamers, streamers, and content creators around the world. All the fan-favorite features are still here: the iconic stunning lighting, the tap-to-mute sensor, 4 selectable polar patterns, the 3.5mm headphone jack, and included shock mount and desktop stand but now with a range of innovative additions packaged in a new sleek, full aluminum silhouette. QuadCast 2 features upgraded 24-bit, 96kHz recording for a studio-quality recording experience. It also features a redesigned detachable shock mount with improved performance and innovative spring-loaded pins, making removal easy and allowing the use of universal shock mounts[1]. In response to our fan’s feedback, QuadCast 2 now includes a multi-function knob so you can do everything on-board without needing to alt-tab. The knob allows users to choose between microphone gain, playback volume, and microphone monitoring volume, and can also switch polar patterns. The LED indicator also makes it easy to determine the current mic status without the hassle of going into the software. Users can choose different lighting effects and tune their mic via HyperX NGENUITY. The HyperX QuadCast 2 – the new standard for streaming microphones.
