Razer Releases 180 EURO Seiren Digital Microphone

Razer Releases 180 EURO Seiren Digital Microphone

Razer today announced the Razer Seirēn (stylized as "Seirēn" and pronounced "Sigh-ren"), a plug-and-play digital microphone designed for studio-grade recording and streaming. The Razer Seirēn features a versatile multi-pattern USB digital connection capable of four different recording pattern configurations with three custom-tuned 14 mm condenser capsules. This makes the Razer Seirēn digital microphone ideal for the needs of professional musicians, streamers and YouTubers who demand superior clarity. With plug-and-play simplicity this microphone is simple to use at the studio or at home.

The Razer Seirēn also allows content creators to quickly switch between 4 different polar recording patterns (Cardioid, Stereo, Bidirectional and Omnidirectional) by rotating the main control knob. Allowing for greater versatility of use depending on recording applications. The microphones built-in headphone amplifier allows for zero latency, real time accurate monitoring of recordings to ensure users sound exactly as they intend to.

"Platforms like YouTube and Twitch are a big part of how people experience their media today, and they shape how we interact with each other," says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. "Tuned for a professional-style setup and able to be assembled and transported quickly and easily, the Razer Seirēn is a microphone designed specifically for streamers and YouTubers."

Razer is also initiating a "Razer Sponsored Streamer Program" to help aspiring content creators and streamers take their recordings to a professional level. Content creators will be divided up into 3 experience levels and are entitled to different levels of sponsorships ranging from a sponsored Razer Seirēn to a full Razer peripheral suite. Razer is committed to help budding streamers achieve higher level recordings and create immersive content.

The Razer Seirēn digital microphone is the company's latest audio product designed to go beyond pure gaming. Earlier this year, Razer launched the Leviathan, a gaming and music soundbar and the Adaro audio line, a series of four headphones tuned for music and designed for comfort and durability. The Adaro collection continues to be popular among EDM artists, musicians and avid music listeners ever since its acclaimed launch at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show.

Beyond its music partners, Razer works with some of the top professional gaming YouTubers and streamers. Many of which were inspirations in the creation of the Razer Seirēn and will play roles in its future development.

Professional recording accessories such as a shock mount and pop filter are also available to pair with the Razer Seirēn digital microphone for the complete recording setup. These accessories along with the Razer Seirēn professional bundle will be available exclusively on RazerStore.

The Razer Seirēn digital microphone will cost U.S. $179.99 / EU €179.99, and I am not sure if that is incl VAT or not.

Or 230€ with accessories: http://www.razerzone.com/eu-en/store/razer-seiren-bundle

It looks like Yeti clone, and I think it might actually be a Yeti clone.

Yep you are correct. It's just a rebadged Yeti. The specs are identical

What in the hell...

Why the premium price? Is it because of the brand? is the SQ and the Frequency Response that good to warrant the price tag?

With no history of microphones in general (aside from headsets), I don't see any Gearhead worth his salt buying this.

Frequency Response doesn't matter much as long as you get the mic calibration file so you can make it flat. At least if you want to use it calibrating stuff. If you don't get calibration file for mic this expensive, I don't see this being worth it. Being USB is more like a downside than positive for me.

You can grab a fairly decent USB condensor mic for about 40 quid...

Yeah I never really understood the popularity with Yeti and clones. I see lots of streamers using them and yet Shure produces a 10x better product for a similar price.
