Can the status LED be configured on the SoloCast?
The status LED behavior on the SoloCast (eg. LED on when muted versus LED on when unmuted) is configurable via a firmware update. Please visit our support page for the appropriate firmware update for your microphone.
Which third party boom arms / mic stands can be used with the SoloCast?
The SoloCast comes with a built-in dual threaded mount hole allowing for use with both 3/8" and 5/8" thread sizes, accomodating most mic stands / boom arms on the market.
How long is the USB cable that comes with the SoloCast?
The included cable is 2 meters (~6.5 feet) in length, USB C on the side of the microphone and USB A on the system side.
Is there a way to keep the SoloCast muted between system restarts or default it to mute?
The SoloCast will default to be unmuted when it first turns on. The mute status is not stored within the microphone, so it resets on power loss. This can also occur when the system enters Sleep, depending on how your system is configured.
Is the SoloCast compatible with Xbox systems?
The SoloCast is not compatible with Xbox systems. The SoloCast is officially compatible with PC, PS4, PS5, and MacOS systems.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So far the mic is great for what I needed, and my setup includes a pop filter, mic cover and I'm waiting to get a shock absorbing mount.
The mic is finicky at times when going to mute on the top with the filter, but that's the filters issue, not the mic. Adjusting the mic for perfect pickup takes some adjustments, and the mic arm I have is great for doing so. The included mic stand is plastic with a weighted base but it's finicky too. You can trust it to hold your mic without it falling out, but finding the right angle for the distance from mic to mouth might be weird.
The included USB C cable has length to it, I believe it's at least 4 feet or so. Keep in mind this isn't an omnidirectional pick-up, but cardioid pattern. So, setup will vary for you.
The threaded base of the mic is great for attaching to mounts of different types but getting it screwed on right is a war of figuring out which direction it needed to be started.
Overall I'm extremely happy with this product.

That being said, the microphone will have to be configured to your environment. The software is unable to change the led on the mic, and has no functional purpose other than receiving firmware updates and being able to quickly go into windows audio.
As you can see the slide on the gui is directly controlling the level in windows and is not seperate.

The mute feature is pretty cool. I just tap the top and the red light let's me know if it's muted or not.

Tiene buena calidad de audio, sirve como tu primer micro para hacer podcast o transmisiones, sólo que si lo debes tener cerca.
Se ve bonito, el blanco es más económico qué el negro pero se se ve muy bien, no sé por qué sea esto.
Hyperex es sinónimo de calidad, así que no esperaba menos.
