HyperX, the gaming division of Kingston Technology Company and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced the launch of the HyperX QuadCast microphone in India for streaming and audio recording. HyperX QuadCast features a built-in anti-vibration shock mount and offers four polar pattern choices, gain control, a built-in pop filter, and a tap-to-mute feature that indicates the mute status by turning off the red LED lighting. This microphone will now be available at an MRP of INR 14,900 through HyperX’s network of retail and e-tail outlets.
Capturing clear and consistent audio via USB, HyperX Quadcast offers four polar patterns: stereo, omnidirectional, cardioid, and bidirectional for flexibility in audio capture, and utilizes a built-in internal pop filter designed to reduce noise for clearer voice quality. Basically it is a condenser microphone usually used in studio recordings but fine-tuned for gaming.A condenser microphone is able to pick up a wider range of frequencies than a dynamic microphone which makes recording audio for gaming perfect for livestreaming or editing
The QuadCast comes with a stand featuring a built-in anti-vibration shock mount, quick gain control and a 3.5mm headphone output for live mic monitoring. The QuadCast microphone offers multi-device chat program compatibility and is certified by Discord and TeamSpeak.
