No community reviews yet.
Separate mixed and individual tracks. Two connectors do not establish simultaneous output, and stereo playback does not make a mono capsule stereo.
Headphone volume is not recording gain. Listening to yourself does not prove that the intended application is recording.
A mounting yoke, clamp or thread adapter does not provide a freestanding base. Other bundles can have different equipment.
The overview says the shock mount/stand is included and the weight table lists a microphone stand; the separate box list does not name it.
The box list names the microphone, cable, adapter and Quick Start Guide; the stand is described as included and pre-attached rather than listed separately. Confirm the delivered contents. Headphones, a boom arm and a pop filter are not listed in this package. Stock, promotions and price were not recorded.
Select: QuadCast 2 S USB Microphone; Color Black; SKU 9A273AA; standard microphone package without a boom arm or headphones.
