The QuadCast S is an RGB multi-pattern USB condenser microphone for streamers, connecting to a computer or console over USB-C at 16-bit/48kHz. Unlike the original QuadCast, which used a Mini-B port, the QuadCast S upgraded to USB-C on the mic body with a USB-C-to-USB-A cable in the box. A 3.5mm headphone jack near the USB port gives real-time monitoring, though thicker plugs can be a tight fit. To set it up you need a USB-C cable to your host and 3.5mm headphones.
