HyperX QuadCast 2 USB Microphone Black with Red Lighting (872V1AA)

One USB Microphone for a More Flexible Creator Desk

The HyperX QuadCast 2 Black is a USB condenser microphone for spoken content, streaming and home recording. Four selectable polar patterns give you different capture arrangements, while on-board controls and a headphone output let you manage the recording setup from the desk instead of relying only on software menus.

This exact QuadCast 2 uses red lighting and supports recording up to 24-bit/96 kHz; it is not the QuadCast 2 S or the Frost colour variant. Its supplied stand and detachable shock mount make a practical starting point, but microphone placement, gain and room acoustics still matter—a condenser microphone does not automatically remove keyboard noise, echo or nearby voices.

Best For: Desk streaming, Voice-over work, Solo podcasts, Remote meetings, Interview setups, Home audio recording

DETAIL SPECIFICATION

TECHNICAL FEATURES

Choose a capture pattern for the session

Cardioid is useful for a single speaker in front of the microphone, while the other selectable patterns support different recording layouts. Pattern selection is a tool for placement, not a guarantee of an isolated or noise-free recording.

Control the microphone at the desk

The tap-to-mute sensor and multifunction knob provide direct access to important adjustments. Check gain and monitoring levels during a real recording test instead of assuming the maximum setting gives better audio.

Listen through the headphone output

The 3.5 mm output supports headphone connection for the recording setup. Monitoring helps you assess the signal, while the host application and chosen routing still determine what is recorded or played back.

Reposition without assuming a universal fit

The supplied stand and detachable shock mount provide mounting flexibility. An alternative shock mount must accommodate the microphone and leave the controls accessible; a boom arm is not included by implication.
