Yes, you can connect the microphone to a PS5 Pro. Simply connect it to the console via USB and select it as an input device under Sound in the PS5 settings. The microphone is recognised and works immediately.
You only need to connect the microphone to the PC via USB to use it. It is a USB condenser microphone that connects directly to the computer via USB and requires no additional hardware. For devices with USB-C connection, a USB-A to USB-C adapter may be required. The microphone is also compatible with PC, Mac, PS5 and PS4 and has a headphone jack for real-time monitoring.
To connect the microphone to your PS4, connect it to a USB port on the PS4 using the USB cable supplied. Then go to the PS4 settings:
1. select "Settings" > "Devices" > "Audio Devices".
2. set the "Input Device" to "USB Headset (HyperX QuadCast S)".
3. set the "Output device" to "USB Headset (HyperX QuadCast S)".
4. set "Output to Headphones" to "All Audio".
5. adjust the volume setting for the headphones.
Hello Dina
I recorded a podcast with my secondary school students. I recommend using the laptop. However, the "environment" is more important than the device, so that there is no disturbing background noise.
Best wishes and good luck!
Yes, the HyperX QuadCast S microphone (manufacturer no. 4P5P7AA) makes monitoring very easy. It has a headphone output that allows you to check your sound in real time. This is particularly useful for monitoring sound quality and making adjustments where necessary.
This was a gift to my son.
He is very happy with the QuadCast S and has been using it for over 2 years. The device has a direct jack plug 2.5mm and can be combined with a headphone. I think it should also work with a voice recorder.
Kind regards

Hello, yes, this works very well, you just have to select the setting from the front and it works perfectly.
You can then adjust the distance with the rotary control at the bottom of the microphone.
A pure XLR to USB-C cable is not technically feasible. XLR is used for analogue signals while USB (in this case with USB-C connector) is based on digital technology. Unfortunately, you can't use the microphone with the Loop Station.
