Razer Seiren X Digital Microphone

ULTRA-PRECISE PICKUP PATTERN

Using a supercardioid pickup pattern, the sound is recorded at a tighter angle. This reduces unwanted background noise and allows you to deliver your voice loud and clear to your audience, so they never miss a single message.

SHOCK RESISTANT

When things get exciting, accidental knocks and bumps happen. When that happens, the built-in shock mount dampens vibrations to help protect your stream against sound anomalies.

COMPACT FORM FACTOR

Most professional microphones sound great but tend to be obstructive and too bulky for desks with limited space. Thanks to its compact and sleek form factor, the Razer Seirēn X delivers a superior audio broadcasting experience while remaining as subtle as possible.

THE CLEAREST WAY TO BE HEARD

When it comes to communicating with your fans, friends, or family, clarity is key. Whether you’re a streamer looking to produce quality content or someone who requires a solid video call setup for everyday communication, say it loud and clear with the Razer Seirēn X.

Audio Quality

There's just one polar pattern available here, and it's supercardioid. Essentially, this is a tighter pickup area than the traditional cardioid, the idea being that the Seiren X picks up only what you want it to--in most instances, your voice, while falling deaf to unwanted background noises like ambient room noise, keyboard, and mouse clicks, or trains rolling by on the railroad outside your window that you didn't notice when you first looked around your apartment. That's the theory, anyway. In truth, to our ears, it sounds as though the Seiren X picks up just about as much mechanical keyboard clatter as HyperX's Quadcast using the cardioid polar pattern. Considering this is your sole choice of polar pattern, that tendency to pick up high-frequency noise is a bit limiting.

It's a shame not to have a couple more options here for podcasting or group streaming, too. Our only bugbear with gaming mics across the board is that they're limited in usage, often for no good reason. USB interfaces are convenient but they mean you can't run a gaming mic into an audio interface, which limits their home recording potential.

However, when recording a vocal in isolation, the Seiren X performs really well. It's able to pick up the little details in the higher frequencies and produces a "breathy" quality that we really like. The low end does lack a bit of authority, but it's there enough to cut through a mix and when you run a compressor over the vocal recording, there's real punch and clarity to it.

Truth be told, it's not quite as warm or full in tone as the Quadcast or the Blue Yeti, but considering the price difference between the Seiren X and those pricier mics, that tradeoff feels reasonable. It does reinforce that this is a mic with a specific usage scenario though, for on-the-go streamers who'll be happy to compromise outright sound quality for easy transport and quick setups and pack downs.
