HyperX Quadcast 2 Fixed Everything Wrong with the Quadcast

[@Dragonra2]

The Dial on the Back of the First HyperX Quadcast Popped off for me and I lost the knob. So this is definetly an upgrade.

[@MDI.PHOTOGRAPHY828]

Was on board until i seen it didn't have full rgb control. Still a great mic, but they missed a great opportunity in the revision.

[@DarkenedCyrus]

They just released the same mic with RGB, the 2s

[@MDI.PHOTOGRAPHY828]

@DarkenedCyrus that's awesome. I hope they do a white version to match my white build. The white from the original S, was just perfect. I appreciate it.

[@Jack_DP]

@@DarkenedCyrus Yeah but the 2S isn't detected by the software, I have the 2S.

[@JesusandAssyria]

yes the 2 and 2s should BOTH have RGB... 2s is 50 more than 2 right now. so im paying that much more just to have the decive change colors its ridiculous

[@MDI.PHOTOGRAPHY828]

@JesusandAssyria they do now have rgb... however, I'm waiting for the s2 to come out in White.

[@pixiedragon83]

I'm torn between the hyperx quadcast s and the hyperx quadcast 2...which should I get...there is only £22 between the prices at the moment...

[@quandale2648]

I mean if you like red and you’re fine with having it red all the time then get the 2 why not

[@pixiedragon83]

@@quandale2648 literally because of the colour...the S is much more aesthetically pleasing...so I would only want the 2 if it is functionally better...since that is more important...

[@quandale2648]

@@pixiedragon83 yeah like i said, if the color matters then go for the colorful one (S). Me personally when I come around to buying one of these I will buy the old S since in my opinion it just looks better and plus there’s not a lot of changes with the new one

great video helped me out

[@EclipsisCorvus]

Curious how this compares side by side with the Beacn Mic, while the Beacn does all the processing and whatnot on board so it won't use PC processing, it's also $120 USD more

[@DarkenedCyrus]

And a dynamic mic at that. Maybe Beacn will send one over? I'd love to test it out and have considered just picking it up myself

[@ItsPaulAngelo]

is there any program that i can use to change like the quality or like to have more of a noise cancelation

@@DarkenedCyrus true LOL. funny how mad people get over a gaming mic when they most likely never owned or used one before to have such a negative attitude 😅

[@HETZERCOM2000]

@@DarkenedCyrus, I own the last generation of quadcast s, and it's great! Just not perfect on vocals even though it sounds nice in my music. Still, it's a great mic and is a beautiful looking and sounding mic overall and I would buy the new ones if I had the money

[@Kokoro_San1234]

Does the quadcast s mic have the voice meter rgb setting?

[@Goldenchaos86]

can you do a comparison hyperx quadcast 2 vs quadcast s please and thank you.

[@cubeco]

@@Goldenchaos86 9:00 minutes into the video he covers this, hope that helps!

[@DusselYorkCityStudios]

I started out with the Quadcast S. But now I have the HyperX Quadcast 2S! So yup, I got the one with the adjustable colors. And if I am correct, it has actually better sound that the Quadcast 2. So if you can get your hands on one, let me know. As that would be interesting. I can only compare the Quadcast S and the Quadcast 2S. So you might be able to check the difference between the Quadcast 2 and Quadcast 2S. Again let me know if you do.

[@sandybeaks9408]

just bought one from walmart lol, very helpful video

Is there a way to connect a Hyper X Cloud III Wireless to Quadcast 2?

[@MAVFR]

Hey Cy when’s your next channel review got a song I would love a review on

[@alexyt75029]

One question. Does the mic automatic turn on when the computer is turned on, or can it be always turned off?

[@DarkenedCyrus]

There isn’t an on/off switch, just a mute button. It will be on whenever it’s plugged in

[@alexyt75029]

@@DarkenedCyrus Humm, are you saying that the mic will start automaticaly ON each time the PC starts?

[@encrol]

@@alexyt75029It’s a usb microphone. when you turn on your device connected to the microphone. The microphone will automatically get power. Console, and pc. You can only mute the device manually by clicking the top. Plug in and play. No needed for software.

did u fix it

[@dank4dayz]

I've had the original Quadcast for years. It's annoying the keep releasing it without multiple RBGs from the jump.

Agree. For the same price as this mic, Shure MV7 is a great option along with a lot of other mics, Rode PodMic, Maono PD400X, or even the Wave 3 from Elgato. Thanks for the 10 months sub btw!

can you turn off the red light?

[@alckw6128]

No RGB, XLR option, and need to use NGENUITY this is not worth more than 120 USD

[@DarkenedCyrus]

Don't have to use Ngenuity, but it's an option. XLR and RGB are valid points though!

[@HETZERCOM2000]

No RGB is fine considering the original quad cast didn't have any. xlr isn't needed either since the mic quality is already amazing. and ngenuity is not needed but even if it was the software is better than most anyways🤷 sound like a hater ngl bro nothing wrong with this mic

[@LazerB.]

For XLR there is the Procast

Lol. No amateur ever needs XLR. And the mic does not need NGENUITY. And you should buy mics on the used market anyway.

[@rexisright]

Not questioning your integrity, but you probably shouldn't say "no money changed hands" as some bonus when getting the mic for free is effectively the same thing - there is money in your pocket that wouldn't be if not for hyperx

[@DarkenedCyrus]

But, no money did change hands. They sent the mic for me to make a review on. The microphone isn’t cash or a form of payment? And unless people watch the video or buy the product, I don’t make money off of it, so hyperx isn’t paying me. Questioning my integrity isn’t something I take lightly and this is how product marketing works. This way, I can say whatever I want as I’m not beholden to what hyperx wants me to say, rather I can be objective.

[@rexisright]

@DarkenedCyrus The mic has a cost, not cheap either. Hyperx, or any company, provide it for free. Unless you have to return it after review, that company has financially benefited you before a word has been written. Hell, LMG understood this to the point of creating a separate channel for sponsored or provided products. Most companies label this under the marketing *budget*, so even they acknowledge there is a cost they are paying. I watch plenty of channels that receive some, even all their gear, but nothing of how they mention it has ever raised my ear or made me comment. I highlighted only that phrase about money changing hands. You could've ignored it. You could've replied "Noted", maybe even sarcastically, but this response reads as a nerve was pressed

[@DarkenedCyrus]

I try to reply to all comments, even those as forward as yours. Best I have for you is thank you for the engagement :) As for a nerve being pressed, it’s all good. Nothing hurting me on this end. I’m also not Linus and LMG, and what they choose to do is of their own choice. Does it add inventory value? Sure. Do most of these items end up being given away to other creators to either review who don’t have these connections? Yes. Do I also give these products away for events? Yes. I’m sure if you had researched my channel and brand to know how it works as much as you understand LMG, this would have been a non issue. I think you failed to hear the sentence before that where I acknowledge that they sent the product for review. But again, please comment for more engagement!

This is a sponsored video. They sent it to you. That is literarlly a sponsor.

[@DarkenedCyrus]

Um, nope. But ok if you think that :) They didn’t pay me anything. Just wanted my opinion on a product.
