Razer Seiren X Condenser Streaming Microphone Review

Поделиться
HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
  • Condenser microphone for desktop use from Razer, the Seiren X is a relatively small mic designed for streamers.
    I'd recommend putting it on a boom arm so you can get it close to your mouth and far enough away from your keyboard. I don't like putting mics on desktop stands due to proximity and vibration.

    I bought this mic and had 2 observations that might help people:
    1) The newer versions of this mic comes with a right-angled usb cable, avoiding the bending mentioned in the review.
    2) When I first plugged this in, Windows 10 decided to set the sample rate to the lowest setting, it took me a while to figure out why it sounded terrible.

    good review, I'm pretty sure 99% of the people considering buying this mic wants to know how it sounds when using a loud clicky keyboard in the background at the same time.

    Very concise but helpful review as always. Never get tired of that chill voice + music combo, enjoyable to watch. Mic seems great for it's price/target demographic, looks like a great affordable upgrade for someone doing a ton of streaming.

    A dynamic microphone is so much better when it comes to dealing with background noise. Kind of silly that a condenser microphone(which is notorious at picking up background noise) is aimed at streamers. A simple Shure sm58 would do a much better job than this one.

    I don't know why, but I recorded vocal sounds for Sleeper (a character) for a Quake 1 mod with my own voice with a Studio Blue Yeti. Just works better for a deeper dragon-like voice. Still working on it though.

  • @stringstorm

    Or.. you know.. a CAD GXL2400 for $30 that sounds same as that. You know.. from CAD.. The guys who made the CAD e100s?
    Or if you wanna go pro, an MXL770 and a Uphoria UM2. A bit pricey but still under the retail of the Seiren X.

  • @LittleW00d
    @LittleW00d 6 лет назад +5

    I'm disappointed that it sounds so bad for such an expensive microphone, I expected it to have a better range and be less noisey!
    For that price you can buy a studio quality XLR mic with a DAC amplifier or buy a good quiality USB mic like the Apogee, Blue Yeti and countless other microphones.

    Nice video, are you going to review the new ModMic 5 by Antlion? I've noticed that most headsets have (pardon my french) shitty microphones. I wish companies like SteelSeries and Razer would pay more attention to microphone quality because I could find a better usb microphone from china for 5 bucks.

    I am looking for a mouse with the sensor located in the front, just like the logitech g500s. I am looking for it because I use fingertip grip and I have read that it is the best sensor location for my grip because the sensor is closer to the fingers, so I would like to try it. My hand length is 18 cm. What mouse would you recommend me?
    Thank you, cheers!

  • @duymazino
    @duymazino 6 лет назад +1

    If you are looking for a good upgrade, I think the Rode K2 should be a good choice. Tube mic, not Condenser, vintage sound, good stuff.

    • @RocketJumpNinja
      @RocketJumpNinja  6 лет назад +1

    • @duymazino

      Got some thoughts on the Neumann TLM 103? Seems highly recommended for rap.

    • @duymazino
      @duymazino 6 лет назад +1

      I would say that the TLM 103 is a very high end mic for anything. Recording guitar, voice over, rapping, pop, jazz,...etc. If you have the cash and willing to go big, then yes you should go for it. Objectively the TLM 103 is better than the Rode K2 as well. Both the K2 and the TLM 103 are great mics, just pick whatever depends on your budget I guess.

    • @RocketJumpNinja
      @RocketJumpNinja  6 лет назад

      So TLM 103, Shure SM7B, Rode K2 and EV RE20... they seem to be the most recommended. But as you mention, cash... might be a bit much, can't really justify the spend when the AT2020 is serving me so well, even for music.
