Rated 4 out of 5 by Some Guy on a Computer from Functionally fantastic but glitchy RGB Microphone works great and is fantastic at picking up sound in the specified direction, however its RGB controlling app that Hyperx recommended does not function as intended sometimes. I frequently see glitches of being unable to change the color or pattern to sometimes not having any color displayed at all. the microphone works great though.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Paula D from Great microphone for online meetings I am using the microphone for meetings, and my colleagues appreciate very much the quality of my voice. In the virtual meetings world, having a good sound quality makes such a difference, and this solo cast microphone really stands out compared to all other microphone solutions I had used before.
