Review on Computer headset Razer BlackShark V2 with USB Sound Card, black by Agata Sikora ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

Audio setup for listening to music from an active music producer: - THX off (You can create a separate profile for music) - Bass boost, sound normalization and speech clarity off. - Frequency equalizer from left to right: 0, 0, -3, -3, 1, 0, 3, -1, -4, 8 - The total volume is not more than 75%, so that the frequencies do not begin to clip and interrupt each other. You can add sound on the remote control on the left "ear" The settings above were described for the Pro version, but they fit this headset perfectly and opened up the sound.

Pros
  • I will immediately answer the most common complaints. - there is no activation code, not because the seller is a fool, but because the function you are trying to activate is already built into the sound card that comes with it. - stupid music playback does not come from the fact that the manufacturer is a fool, but from the fact that you are trying to listen to music in THX mode, which is primarily designed for games and frequencies necessary to assess the game situation. Most music is designed for stereo, not 7.1 emulation - here it's all about the dynamics and no 7.1, you cheated! Friends, nowhere is it stated that this is live 7.1, initially it is presented as an emulation by changing the timbres and frequencies in each speaker depending on the virtual sound source. And now the score. - It is conveniently adjustable and sits on the head with full coverage of the ears (and they are not small for me), this achieves good isolation from external noise. - I didn’t notice fogging of the ears, they also often write about it, probably individually. - Contrary to frequent reviews, the microphone is good, loud. Without noise reduction, you will hear a cockroach burp in the next room, so it's better to turn it on. If someone’s mic doesn’t work, don’t panic, but watch the setup video, there are a lot of them. - Listening to music is very usable with off. thx. The bass is excellent, with plenty of headroom (for bassophiles). For working with tracks, mastering, mixing, of course, it is better to use monitor headphones, and not a gaming headset. You can also individually adjust the equalization. I did it on the advice of one music producer from a video on YouTube, it worked for me. I will describe the setting below in the comment.
Cons
  • The wire looks thin, but it's braided, let's see how long it lasts. For those who need to "plug and play" will still have to tinker with software and driver settings. : At the conference in Google Meet, the microphone suddenly gave an error. The restart in the recording devices menu (disable / start) helped. If the problem persists, I will add to the review. There are no problems with the very audibility of me by my colleagues, everything is loud, clear, there is even a margin in volume. Boost setting minus 15% of the overall microphone sensitivity.
