SnO Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 The best microphone for gaming and streaming Years ago, it did not occur to me to have any microphones, whether for games or even regular ones, because I usually, like many players, settle for a regular microphone or integrated with a regular headset, because all that matters is that the other party hears me clearly, I also do not hide that I have always been ashamed of hearing my audio recordings using a regular microphone, so I used to say to myself, “You will not be fit to be a broadcaster or creator of content on the Internet in any way.” But it seems that I have underestimated my capabilities somewhat, and that is when I got the microphone HyperX QuadCast S Professional And here was the surprise when trying it and completing some random audio recordings for the test, to be surprised when I discovered that my voice was no longer that annoying sound, and I will be frank with you without exaggeration and I will not hide from you that the sound has become much clearer and more accurate, I did not believe at the time that this is it My voice, so the secret was in the quality of the microphone that is used to record the sound, which plays a very important role in purifying the sound, muting the disturbance, and producing it with the best accuracy and quality.
