HyperX SoloCast 2 USB Condenser Microphone – Plug & Play, 24-bit/96kHz

• True plug-and-play USB-C setup — connect the included USB-C to USB-A cable, and your PC or Mac recognises it instantly — no drivers, no configuration, no wasted time before a stream
• Studio-quality 24-bit / 96kHz audio — broadcast at a resolution that captures every detail of your voice with clarity that headset mics and built-in laptop microphones simply cannot match
• Built-in internal shock mount — engineered to absorb desk vibrations and accidental bumps from the inside, giving you clean audio even when you're hammering your keyboard mid-game
• Integrated pop filter included — the internal foam layer tames harsh plosive sounds (those punchy P and B sounds) so your recordings stay clean without needing a separate external filter
• Tap-to-mute with live LED indicator — a single tap on the top of the mic mutes your audio instantly; the red LED lets you confirm at a glance whether you're live or silent — no embarrassing hot mic moments
• AI noise reduction via NGENUITY Software — dial in high-pass and low-pass filters, boost vocal presence, compress your dynamics, and save your custom settings directly to the mic's onboard memory
• Tilting desk stand with mic arm compatibility — the weighted, tilt-adjustable base keeps the mic stable on your desk, while built-in 3/8" and 5/8" threads mean it mounts to any standard boom arm
• Cardioid polar pattern for focused capture — captures sound from directly in front while rejecting keyboard noise, room echo, and ambient sounds from the sides and rear
• Discord & TeamSpeak certified — officially verified to perform on the platforms gamers and streamers actually use, including OBS Studio, Streamlabs OBS, and XSplit
• Compatible with PC, Mac, PS4 & PS5 — works across your entire setup whether you're gaming on console, creating on a MacBook, or working from a Windows desktop

📄 FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Your Voice Is Part of Your Setup — Make It Sound Like It

You've invested in a monitor, a headset, a chair, and a desk mat. But the moment you open your mouth on Discord or go live, your teammates and viewers hear a muffled, tinny echo that sounds like it's coming through a bathroom door. The HyperX SoloCast 2 fixes that problem the moment you plug it in.

This is a USB condenser microphone built specifically for people who want professional-level audio without a professional-level learning curve. It's designed for streamers, gamers, podcasters, content creators, and remote workers who need great sound now — not after an hour of driver installation and cable management.

Everything Built In. Nothing to Add.

Most USB microphones at this price point require you to buy a pop filter separately, add a shock mount, find a compatible boom arm adapter, and then figure out why it still sounds awful. The SoloCast 2 skips all of that.

The pop filter is built directly into the capsule housing. The shock mount is integrated internally, absorbing vibrations before they reach the audio signal. The stand tilts and adjusts without tools. The 3/8" and 5/8" threading is already machined into the base. Everything you need to get great audio is already there — straight out of the box.

Plug the USB-C cable in. Your computer finds it. You're recording.

24-bit / 96kHz — The Numbers That Actually Matter

The SoloCast 2 captures audio at 24-bit depth and a 96kHz sampling rate. In practical terms, that means your voice is captured with enough resolution that every nuance — breath, tone, texture — comes through cleanly. Streaming platforms, podcast apps, and recording software all receive a signal clean enough to process, EQ, and publish with confidence.

This is the same bit depth used in professional studio recording. On a plug-and-play USB mic. At a fraction of what studio gear costs.

Stay in Control With Tap-to-Mute

Mid-game, mid-call, mid-stream — sometimes you just need to cut yourself off fast. The SoloCast 2's tap-to-mute sensor is a single touch on the top of the mic. The red LED on the front tells you exactly what's happening: lit up means you're live, dark means you're silent.

It's the kind of feature that sounds small until the one time your flatmate walks into the room while you're live on Twitch and you kill the mic in half a second without missing a beat.

Smarter Sound With NGENUITY Software

For those who want to go deeper, the free HyperX NGENUITY software (Windows 10+) opens up a suite of audio processing tools. Adjust mic gain to match your environment. Apply a high-pass filter to strip out low-frequency rumble from fans or air conditioning. Engage the AI noise reduction to clean up ambient background sounds. Use the presence boost to add warmth and clarity to your vocals. Set a compressor to keep your levels consistent across a long stream.

All of your settings are saved to the microphone's onboard memory — so when you plug it into a different machine, your custom sound profile travels with you.

Built for Every Setup, Not Just One

On a desk? The weighted, tilt-adjustable stand holds it steady. On a boom arm? The built-in threading fits standard 3/8" and 5/8" mounts — no adapter required. On a console? It's fully compatible with PS4 and PS5 via USB. On a MacBook? Plug in and it just works.

The SoloCast 2's cardioid polar pattern ensures it's capturing your voice — not your mechanical keyboard, not the game audio from your speakers, not the traffic outside. Just you, clearly.

Who Is This Mic For?

Whether you're a Twitch streamer building an audience, a podcaster recording solo episodes, a remote worker who's done apologising for their microphone, a content creator tired of ADR work in post, or a gamer who wants to be heard properly on voice chat — the HyperX SoloCast 2 is the upgrade that changes everything, without changing everything at once.
