Unleash the power of voice. The ROG Carnyx is a professional USB microphone featuring a cardioid polar pattern, a 25mm condenser capsule, and a sampling rate of 192 kHz / 24-bit for a natural and full sound. The Carnyx delivers clean and interference-free recordings thanks to a high-pass filter that reduces low-frequency noise, a built-in pop filter that prevents plosive sounds, and a metal mount that minimises external vibrations.
The Carnyx not only enables studio-quality recordings but also features an intuitive one-touch mute button and a multifunctional rotary knob to elevate your recording and streaming experiences.
25mm studio-quality condenser capsule. Compared to standard microphones, the larger 25mm condenser capsule of the Carnyx enhances performance at low frequencies, delivering rich, natural, and warm vocal tones.
Natural, rich sound. The lossless audio processing supports a high sampling rate of 192 kHz / 24-bit to ensure faithful sound reproduction that captures every nuance of your voice.
Cardioid polar pattern. The cardioid pattern emphasises sound from the front while minimising sound pickup from the sides and rear, making the Carnyx perfect for solo streams, gamers, and podcasters.
High-pass filter. The built-in filter suppresses unwanted low-frequency background noise below 80 Hz, such as humming or rumbling, ensuring your voice does not sound muddy and stands out better. The high-pass filter effectively emphasises your voice by reducing background noise below 80 Hz.
Noise reduction solution. The pop filter consists of foam and mesh layers to prevent plosive sounds when the microphone is used up close.
Metal shock mount. The robust all-metal mount is equipped with elastic suspensions.
