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.
Yeah that's definitely an issue with the original and a good reason to go for the S. Plus the rgb options are just fun to have. It's still on sale too amzn.to/3Q7albT
I was looking up the difference between the Hyper X Quadcast S and the normal Quadcast and then i just saw your old video and now i know that the difference between the Hyper X Quadcast S and the normal Quadcast is just RGB lighting,
Thank you, you helped me a lot. I'm looking to buy one of the two, but where I researched the difference between them, I didn't find the answers very well and you explained everything to me
I just found QuadCast on sale for 55$ then i found that there's a variand with RGB for 120$. This review helped me to see that is not worth the upgrade!
I got the Quad Cast S this past week. I figured out how to use it on Twitch while streaming on my PS5. It cost me around $160.00 and I got an extra pop filter for it.
that's funky! Funny enough, given my channel's colour scheme, I'd probably keep it red anyway. but mine's the trusty ol $40 fifine. Maybe I'll paint it red lol.
Spray paint it? Fun story: my buddy Nathan is a mechanic and a guy in his shop left a can of orange spray paint in his truck on a 110 degree day, the can exploded and coated the entire interior PERFECTLY. Once he chipped it all off the windows he actually had a pretty cool orange dashboard
Well its 30 quid difference for me and I litterly just thought: “well it looks less proffesional on video calls so good I can just set it to 1 collor”. So in short: for me I just thought the quadcast had better sound but now I know that this isnt the case I am 100% getting the quadcast, I even preffer the look so no reason so spend more
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.
@@jaybratt That's great! Hope you had a wonderful time here? Looking to buy a mic 🎤 for my daughter. Was going to get the Yeti X until I saw it had micro USB. Big believer of " one cable to rule them all!" LoL 😂
@@NipponKiwi haha I've tried the yeti and this. Similar sounds. I think the hyper x is a bit more gamer and user friendly personally. Tap to mute, big volume knob, it's all just simpler and prettier too I think. Yeti is seen as a bit more professional though
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.
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
@@jaybratt Thank you for the detailed answer👍. I think I'll go with the rode nt then because of its quality and to be honest, in my opinion, the rgb doesnt look that special to me. Does the arm with the in built spring also fit the rode nt usb? (sounds logical that it does but just asking). And thanks for the tip to keep the box if I was going to buy the Quadcast.😂

@@markteekens266 the Rode is still gonna be better. The blue yeti is basically identical to the HyperX. HyperX did that on purpose lol.

If you'll also maybe record music or a group of people blue yeti might be nice for the options down the road though. If you can find a great deal on the yeti that also could tip the scales because I've seen them as cheap as $100

Also your video was very informative.
I've been using HyperX mics for 3 years now and haven't had any issues. They seem to be quality but if you're really rough I might get something more durable as I've seen some people cave in the mess cage but hitting it really hard or stepping on it. Idk how that happens but people are rough
@@Po7ent I've found it's clean as long as you don't mess with too many filters. When I've had the filters on it it's sounded a little underwater before. I'm sure if you have the filters tuned right that's not the case though.

That depends on what generation of iPhone you're talking. If it's a new one YES, that is a USB C adapter so it should work. A lightning adapter won't help you though.

@@jaybratt yeah I'm getting a headset soon just can't decide what I want.. the cloud 2 looks great but I don't think it sounds the best. I'll figure it out.. hopefully before inflation gets any higher.. lol
@@InsidiousRebel yes, dang inflation! If you do get one and you think about it I'd love to hear your thoughts here. I've been thinking about replacing my krakens. Krakens aren't great but I got them free so, can't beat that
Heh, I actually have a small unboxing knife. 2 of them, karambits. Not the onese that look like they come from a game, I have those too for fun but I don't think they're sharp, really small ones intended for their original purpose, picking fruits and gardening.
One other thing I forgot to mention, with the new one you can turn the brightness to ZERO if you need it for something professional. The original mic you can't turn the light off unless it's muted.
Realistically yes. It also has the USB c port instead of micrl and some functionality with the lights app like being able to turn the light off while recording but really it's an RGB version.
During the talking after the 3 minute mark it's switching back and forth but the mics are the exact same internals so they sound the same. It's really down to looks for the difference.
@@MikeRota if you contact hyperx customer service they'll usually just send you that piece free. Tons of people accidentally throw them away so they're used to it.
I don't have an Xbox to test but it doesn't look like USB mics are plug n play like they are on PlayStation ☹️ I could be wrong but searching I found only workarounds to make it happen. Also site says it works on PC, PS4 or Mac
It seems that way with the same mic but the crazy thing was due to the pandemic they were both selling for $100s more due to scalpers. It's amazing what some people will pay for these. If it hadn't been for my discount I got I still wouldn't own this mic lol

It's true! It's like stickers on a race car 😆
What’s your mic software settings? I have pretty good settings to sound crisp, just curious what softwares you use
I just picked up the Quadcast (original) because it was half off on Amazon, 120 down to 60. Friggin' steal!
1000% worth 30 dollars more for a RGB controled quadcast :D
What's the full price
It should be $170 normal price but scalpers...
I agree but that's a lot for that lol

Agreed, there's so few reasons to pay the extra and honestly people that do are just doing it for the color change lol
There's a huge sale currently, RGB is a couple $ from the red Quadcast so I grabbed one, sounds nice tho!
I saw, that's the lowest price the S model has ever had. Sweet time to buy!
that is a big knife to open a box and thank you for this analysis sir
Regular Quadcast for 80€ should I? Can the lights be turned completely off from the software? 🤔
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.
Lol the quad cast s was 10$ cheaper! Was definately worth the upgrade lol. Saving money plus RGB lighting!
That sale has been awesome and so many people showing up here to find out if it's worth it. Definitely worth it at this price! Well done!

I hear you. They were on sale recently here (USA) for nearly the same price.... Then I went and bought the white edition th-cam.com/video/qWG30DjcE2A/w-d-xo.html also so I'm just a sucker apparently 🤣
@@jaybratt YOOOO I didn’t even know a white one existed it’s so beautiful
Can you tell hyperx software name to change rgb
Yeah let me go look at the box... Ngenuity
I got the original quadcast cuz I love red and that red is so sexy. I guess I'm a hyperx fanboy. Got the mic, keyboard, and mousepad.. lmao
I had the original and now the S. I've never had anything else hyper X but I hear their headsets are really good too
@@jaybratt yeah I'm getting a headset soon just can't decide what I want.. the cloud 2 looks great but I don't think it sounds the best. I'll figure it out.. hopefully before inflation gets any higher.. lol
@@InsidiousRebel yes, dang inflation! If you do get one and you think about it I'd love to hear your thoughts here. I've been thinking about replacing my krakens. Krakens aren't great but I got them free so, can't beat that
@@jaybratt for sure. I got cheap ass Astro's right now so anything will be better lol
Is it just me or was the audio a little bit out of sync from the video?
I think your phone or something is out of sync because you've said this several times lol
Wait got notifications 3 minutes later
Minutes are hard for youtube apparently
I just got this mic!
Do you love it? I love the colors on it honestly! I just changed mine to just blue, pink, and purple to match my new setup!
@@jaybratt I love it! My first usb mic and it’s great. I’m glad I went with the rgb instead of the all red and I got it on sale for Black Friday.
i just bought hyperx quadcast on sale and it costed 75 dollars
That's a freaking great deal! Well done!
Razer Sieren Mini user here!
Nice! I'm Razer keyboard, mouse, and headphones
@@jaybratt Nice! 😀
0:37 LOL!
Got both of these for €60 total. Don't buy this crap new, kids. These are fine on the used market.
Heh, I actually have a small unboxing knife.
2 of them, karambits.
Not the onese that look like they come from a game, I have those too for fun but I don't think they're sharp, really small ones intended for their original purpose, picking fruits and gardening.
The S is hardly an upgrade.
Seriously, idk if we can even call it that... Quadcast RGB would've been a better name 😂
To be honest , the red one looks better for me.
The other one can still be red and change color but if you like the red save that extra money for sure!
@@jaybratt Good point, thanks mate
One other thing I forgot to mention, with the new one you can turn the brightness to ZERO if you need it for something professional. The original mic you can't turn the light off unless it's muted.
boom arm?
I'm still using this same one, it's the "sturdy" tonor arm: th-cam.com/video/kVJl10AiPa4/w-d-xo.html (old video alert 😂)
nice Intro
Thanks Louie! It's an older one now but I loved that 8bit transformation! 😊
Can you customize it on ps5
So vasicly the quadcast s is just rgb and thats it
Realistically yes. It also has the USB c port instead of micrl and some functionality with the lights app like being able to turn the light off while recording but really it's an RGB version.
Where speak test ?
During the talking after the 3 minute mark it's switching back and forth but the mics are the exact same internals so they sound the same. It's really down to looks for the difference.
I bought it second hand for 50.
Frickin sweet price!
Great vid as always 👍
You're Great... AS ALWAYS Orange :)
Got the S with 99€. 10€ cheaper than quadcast. Don't know what happened there
I saw it's on sale at it's lowest price now. That's a great find Random! Well done!
In 2024 I just bought the Hyper X S secondhand for $50
Sweet deal!! You letting the RGB rotate or you like a static color?
@@jaybratt Signal RGB controlling it.
@@MikeRota nice!!
@jaybratt The only thing it was missing was the boom arm piece. I am sure I can order that if I decide to put it on an arm.
@@MikeRota if you contact hyperx customer service they'll usually just send you that piece free. Tons of people accidentally throw them away so they're used to it.
in norway the quadcast is 130 dollars and the quadcast s is 140 dollars
I'd definitely go for the S with that small price difference.
Does this work on Xbox
I don't have an Xbox to test but it doesn't look like USB mics are plug n play like they are on PlayStation ☹️ I could be wrong but searching I found only workarounds to make it happen. Also site says it works on PC, PS4 or Mac
I bought the red one for 75$ secondhand and realize there's a sale for the quadcast S just for 50$ new :((((((((
Where is this new sale? I'd buy 3
That’s one sexy looking mic 👀
Of course Coids would see it that way 😂
They should have made it the same price bruh
It seems that way with the same mic but the crazy thing was due to the pandemic they were both selling for $100s more due to scalpers. It's amazing what some people will pay for these. If it hadn't been for my discount I got I still wouldn't own this mic lol
so what mics are out there that are cheaper and just as good?
I really wish that they were the same price oof
The Quadcast goes on sale decently often so hopefully when the S is on sale it'll be the price the Quadcast usually is... Hoping 😊
Woah you still respond… that’s bloody awesome
@@verkanoprints3746 every comment 😁
Honestly that’s just impressive
@@verkanoprints3746 well thanks Verkano that means a lot to me 😊. When I started the channel I did it to get to engage with like minded individuals and have fun. Chatting with new people is one of my favorite parts of doing this. I respond to a lot of comments though lol:

3:37 I just got mine for 120!
That's a good deal! Well done At0mixZ!
i have the quadcast s there very good
Same, I ended up getting the white edition for a new setup though: th-cam.com/video/qWG30DjcE2A/w-d-xo.html
got mine for 120 yuhhh
edit :first microphone 🎙
That's a GREAT first mic! I saw it was on sale recently so you got a good deal too. Well done!
Can you please update your outro? It's honestly not a very good ending of every video.
Aw, I like it!
@@scarletibis3574 Well, I'ts always goo dto have an outro but he has had this intro for about half a year or so. So the mic sound weird and the list of TH-cam members and subscribers was never updated.
I agree with you, this is the same one from the 5k I think. I kept saying I'd re do it at 10k but I just need to bite the bulllet and GET IT DONE!
i just bought the quadcast s for $120 before tax (7% where im from)
That's a good price!
@@jaybratt i'm looking for a boom arm but i want it a low profile since my desk is full with 2 monitors a ful keyboard and have stuff on the sides such as my mouse and on the left i have an Osu! keypad.
qny recomendations?
any price from low to high i just want a reliable one
@@katame_no_shi I've been using a Tonor extra sturdy one: th-cam.com/video/kVJl10AiPa4/w-d-xo.html for a long time and it's great but I want to get one without the springs showing like this one: amzn.to/3i1ftON IMPORTANT: the Quadcast comes with an adapter in the box, you'll need that for any scissor arm stand so hang onto it. So many people don't need it and throw it away lol
@@jaybratt i always store and hang on to everything even the boxes, i still have stuff from other headsets i used to have lol.
thanks for replying!!!
@@katame_no_shi smart! And you're welcome 😊
its a great mic i love it
I still use it daily!
Bought one for 99 dollars today💀
Sweet deal!!
it was $89.99 on black friday i got 2 of them.
primarily aesthetics
Too much yapping. I just need the sound test
