Mythbuster: RGB does not help to increase the FPS of your game. But a desktop RGB microphone does help get rid of the burden on your head without denting a single bit of appeal of your streaming. And more importantly, make your voice sound more pleasant to either teammates or viewers.
Even if you make up your mind dipping a toe into an RGB microphone, it is hard for you to find a stylish and trustworthy one without costing a great fortune. Up until now, with the launch of FIFINE AmpliGame A8, you have one more option to consider adding to your RGB arsenal. But why?
USB is always easy to use, just plug in, talk and you are sounding amazing and crashing the noobs. Nothing mind-blowing at all? How about comparing to a minutes-long pre-flight check every time for using an XLR microphone setup? A plug-and-play microphone is definitely a great relief to the impatient people of your squad.
But USB microphone is not exclusive to Windows or Play Station Console gamers, the compatibility with Mac will also help with the workflow of your audio project.
USB setup may come as no surprise, but the pleasing features will keep on coming if you look deeper into it. First comes the very welcome addition of the type-c. It is rather convenient to use around your studio when everything just uses the same type of cable.
If there is a gaming-feature top list, the quick-mute must claim the crown. With one integrated into the top, you need not to remember yet another hotkey. To make the experience even better, it is touch-sensitive to mute yourself without indicating others with audible clicking. The LED icon on the top is the guarantee of having no accidental mute on stream.
Right out of the box comes the pre-assembled microphone and the shock mount. Unlike the traditional mounts that are screwed into the bottom of the mic with a nut, the included one of the AmpliGame A8 is attached with elastic rubber bands. Thus it is more effective at keeping unwanted vibrations from making their way into your streaming.
For streaming in front of the camera, the size and the aesthetic of a microphone or a headset count. Bulky gears are not just hard to fit anywhere comfortably but are also likely to block your face quite easily. A smaller profile microphone should be the first choice of the streamers who wants more interaction with their viewers.
