CONTROL VOLUME LEVEL: The integrated LED gain indicator visually lets you know if your voice is too loud so you can react immediately. Need a moment to cough or grab a snack? One simple tap on the top silences the microphone instantly. DISPLAY YOUR WAY: Use the included metal stand, or hang your mic on any conventional tripod with the integrated 3/8-inch thread. The microphone also comes with 12 different honeycomb-pattern lighting modes, ranging from static color to vivid effects to suit your fancy. PLOSIVE POP FILTER: Plosives are consonants whose articulation blocks the flow of air while talking. When the blocked airflow is released, a small acoustic explosion occurs, which produces a popping sound. The pop protection on this mic preserves the natural sound of consonants P, T, K, B, D, and G. FILTER BACKGROUND NOISE: The ENDGAME GEAR XSTRM USB microphone’s cardioid pattern focuses on sounds from the front. Integrated AI noise cancellation removes annoying background sounds. The shock mount suspends the mic, allowing independent movement and absorbing unwanted vibrations.
