SteelSeries has just dropped a fresh lineup of microphones made specifically with gamers in mind. Meet the SteelSeries Alias and Alias Pro Condenser Microphones. These bad boys aren’t just easy to use, they promise to deliver top-notch studio-level sound quality that’ll make your gaming experience epic.

Mark your calendars because these Alias microphones will make their debut at ESGS happening from 3– 5 November. So what’s the big deal? Well, these mics are powered by Sonar for Streamers, a feature that’s set to revolutionize how your voice comes across in the gaming world. The secret sauce? A custom-built 1” condenser capsule that’s three times the size of regular mic capsules, ensuring it flawlessly captures every word you say. Plus, the finely tuned cardioid capsule pattern works like a charm, reducing pesky background noise in a bubble-like capture area. Translation? It’s the kind of sound pattern you’d find in those professional broadcast and recording studios – exactly what you need for streaming. Oh, and there’s a custom-built shock mount that soaks up vibrations, so you can go all out in your streams without worrying about your sound quality taking a hit.

“For many, gaming isn’t just a pastime, it’s a passion and a lifestyle, so having the very best peripherals fills a need to make the experience amazing every time. For decades, SteelSeries has been as passionate about bringing innovative, best-in-class products to the market as gamers are about gaming itself. With the launch of our Alias microphones powered by Sonar for Streamers, we are empowering current gamers, streamers, and content creators, and enabling future generations to create great streams and content for years to come.”

Now let’s talk about the tech that resides inside. SteelSeries cooked up a powerful turbo engine called Sonar for Streamers to power these Alias mics. This free software suite is like having your own studio, giving streamers all the tools they need for high-quality audio production. It’s got everything from a 10-band Parametric EQ to AI noise cancellation, all designed to make your room sound like a professional studio. Plus, you won’t need any extra software or plugins because it comes with pro mixing tools like Compressor and Limiter. The best part? It plays nice with standard video broadcasting software and won’t mess with your frame rates.

The Alias microphones, especially the Alias powered by Sonar for Streamers, are the first of their kind made explicitly for gamers. They sport a 24bit/48kHz broadcast-quality microphone, picking up every little detail in your voice with pinpoint precision. And guess what? It’s a game-changer for your audience, delivering powerful, crystal-clear audio that draws them right in. Plus, for your convenience, the mic displays peak level information with LED indicators and switches to a red “X” when you’re muted. Real-time monitoring, RGB lights, and a whole range of colours are also on the menu, making it super easy to set up—all you need to do is plug and play via USB.

But hold on, there’s more. The Alias Pro, running on the same Sonar for Streamers system, is the ultimate beast for streaming. It’s an XLR microphone that captures your voice with supreme accuracy, reducing interference for pure, powerful audio. It’s all about empowering your production skills, especially with the XLR Stream Mixer, bringing pro-level control to your PC setup. SteelSeries even introduces a game-changer for gamers: the StreamMixer which supports dual PC streaming for content creators. Plus, it lets you adjust up to five audio channels individually for that perfect audience experience. Convenience is key here, with quick access to controls and LED indicators for monitoring levels and mute status. It’s all about taking your streaming game to the next level.

Now, here’s the scoop on pricing. The SteelSeries Alias comes in at RM 1,099, while the Alias Pro is priced at RM 1,799. You can snag these mics on the official SteelSeries website, as well as their Shopee store. Oh, and the Sonar for Streamers software? You can grab that for free, too. Time to level up your streaming game, folks!
