    Quadcast S: amzn.to/2PZFS5k
    Quadcast: amzn.to/3e4jTSA
    My Pop Filter: amzn.to/39qFtyX
    Both of these are Gamer Style Condenser USB microphones. They are built from the same design and shell with the newer S model having RGB lighting, upgraded capabilities for studio monitoring, a grey shock mount cable to match all setups, and a USB C cable instead of a micro USB.
    Both of these mics come highly reviewed and have won awards. They each have options for gain, a fast mic mute, and polar patterns. Today we try to decide if it is worth it to upgrade.

    HyperX QuadCast

The included mount adapter fits 3/8” and 5/8” thread sizes and is compatible with most stands. The QuadCast S model provides RGB lighting and dynamic effects that are customizable through HyperX NGENUITY software.
    The QuadCast family is certified by Discord and TeamSpeak™ so you can ensure that your microphone is broadcasting loud and clear for all your followers and listeners, and you can also monitor your mic in real time using the convenient headphone jack on the back of the mic.

    I'm looking to buy one today and the only problem I can see with the Quadcast vs S is that the original you can't dim the brightness of the red and I've seen a few reviews saying if you prefer a darker vibe/not so bright then not being able to adjust the brightness on the original is a pain if you feel like it's beaming into your eye.
    So for that reason I think I will go for the S version so I can dim the brightness on a set colour or even turn it off at times.

    • @jaybratt
      @jaybratt  2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    • @jaybratt
      @jaybratt  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The original Quadcast didn't have lights that could be turned off at all. That's a good deal though for an original and I'd say it's worth it. The light stays on because it is your mute indicator. On the newer S model you can go in the software and just turn the brightness down to 0, although it'll be harder to know when it's muted.

      Sound quality is the same. You're buying it for the looks only. If sound is all you care get the cheaper Quadcast. The S just adds RGB lighting, some app functionality, and uses USB c instead of micro but that hardly matters since it includes it's own cable.

    what mic arm for desk would you recommend with the quadcast S and should I buy a quadcast S or a Rode NT usb (not the mini)?

    • @jaybratt
      @jaybratt  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hi Mark! This is the arm I use and it's very stable but also budget friendly: amzn.to/3BHvlOq
      You can get one with the spring built in for a cleaner look for about the same price: amzn.to/3zLjAWi I haven't tested this one personally but most budget mic arms are gonna work great.
      As far as which mic the Rode NT is a much higher quality mic and build. The only reasons anyone might choose the S over it is the RGB lighting, the gamer look, or it does have multiple modes in case you ever need an omnidirectional mic (Most people don't) where the Rode only has a single cardioid pattern making it a great single person mic.
      If you did decide to get the Quadcast KEEP THE BOX, more importantly there's an adapter in the box that is how you put it on a scissor arm. I can't tell you how many people have contacted me saying they'd thrown it away... whoopsie. Luckily HyperX has always sent them a free replacement when I referred them to their customer service.
      Hope that helps but let me know what other questions you have :D
