Hyperx Quadcast 2 review and sound tests

This is a review of the HyperX Quadcast 2 where I'm showing you what it sounds like, both on the standard mic stand and on a boom arm. I am also showing all the different features that make this a great mic. Including the shock mount system, how easy it is to install on a boom arm and the simple software. It's worth noting that the Quadcast 2S is the one with RGB lighting, but this Quadcast 2 is still a perfectly capable mic.
