The new Razer Seiren V2 Pro is another Pro Microphone for the expanding streaming and creator industry. It is probably too good for your regular Zoom conversations at work, though. No sir, this $150 matte black pill is made for the Pokemaines and Shrouds of the world, as well as you aspiring podcasters, YouTubers, and DJs. Most other people don’t need to apply, though, because attaining the advertised sound from this microphone needs a lot of tricks.

Even though it’s called “Pro,” the Serien V2 Pro isn’t a fancy XLR mic. Instead, it’s a simple USB condenser that you just put in and use. It is a 30mm dynamic microphone that promises a rich, warm, and clear sound up to 96kHz sampling rate. It works nicely on both PC and Mac, but to get the most out of it, you’ll need a Windows computer with Razer Synapse.
Where to get Razer Seiren V2 Pro USB Microphone?
The best thing about USB desk microphones is that all you have to do to use them is plug them into a free port. No bother. The Seiren V2 Pro is different. First, make sure the mic is in the right place, where the Cardioid pickup pattern is strongest. The screw threading at the bottom of the microphone makes it easy to attach it to a boom arm. Then, when you speak into the mic, it will pick up a rich, warm version of your voice that would make Barry White swoon.
The Seiren V2 Pro, however, does not come with a boom arm. Instead, it comes with a desk stand that is really well made and does a terrific job of keeping the mic firm, absorbing shocks, and letting it tilt up to 180 degrees.
