    I like the fact that the duo cast had higher quality and better features than the quadcast and the solo cast

    Thank you for demonstrating the led pattern when you switch modes. I read the instructions manualand could figure out what's "full to front" or "front to full" but now I fully understand by looking at the LED patttern.

    I wish this had a white version, but you may have just sold me on this mic. The quad cast is a bit much for what I need/want, and I don’t like the big LEDs on the mic. Great video.

    Did you recommend it for deeper voice?
    A music sound test would be nice to compare more in deep the full audio spectrum.

  • @Scippiaf
    @Scippiaf หลายเดือนก่อน

    From what I could tell in the comparison, the duocast sounded the clearest of all 3, the solocast was more "boomy" when you were tapping on the desk, and the deity sounded more "mic-ish"

      I have the solocast, and i can admit that it does sound a bit harsher in the high end.. if accidentally shouted/screamed/jumpscared, then some people on your discord call will get surprised.. but it's still a great value tho

I will say I'm not the biggest fan of how S sounds are quite sharp - you can hear it in the video when he compares the two. I got mine 30% off for a Christmas promo and at that price it's 100% worth.

      If they are the same price in your country, base it off what you need. Do you need all the features that come with the quadcast? Get that one. If you know you'll never use more than 2 settings, get the duocast. Both sounded great in the video (personally like the duocast more)

      I don't think you can adjust the color, but with changing colors, it also lights up from 0-100 around the ring, so I think you should be able to tell what level it's set to. The software also shows current gain.
