The Problem with Headset Hair: A Potential Solution with the Aegis Desktop Microphone

We've all experienced it - the frustration of wearing a headset while gaming, only to have our voice picked up by the microphone and amplified to an annoying level. This is often due to the close proximity of the mic to our mouth, which allows us to turn down the gain to minimize background noise. However, this also means that our voice becomes relatively loud compared to everything else around us. Additionally, many gamers wear headsets because they don't want their fellow players to hear the music or other sounds coming from their speakers.

For some people, however, wearing a headset is not an option due to discomfort or simply because they prefer not to use one. This can be especially true for those who have invested in a high-quality speaker system and want to use it instead of their gaming headphones. That's where the Aegis desktop microphone comes in - a device that sits flat on your desk and actively suppresses background noise.

The Aegis has several features that make it an attractive option for gamers looking to improve their audio quality without having to wear a headset. First and foremost, there is a volume control knob, an LED volume indicator, and a large mute button. The microphone at the back of the device has a micro USB port and a DSP switch, which allows users to easily connect and calibrate their system. The setup process is relatively short and sweet - simply place the mic within 60 cm (about 2 feet) of where you'll be speaking from, download the Aegis voice engine (or AV), install the software, and follow the onscreen instructions to connect and calibrate the mic.

In a recent test with Aver media's Ballista Trinity speaker system, the Aegis microphone performed well. The creator of the channel tested out the device while playing games and recording audio, including moments where he was eating lunch or dancing around his room. He also played with bots in the game, which allowed him to demonstrate the effectiveness of the microphone in suppressing background noise. While some minor issues were encountered during the testing process, such as struggling to produce a high-pitched voice due to illness, the overall performance of the Aegis was impressive.

One of the most interesting aspects of the Aegis is that it represents a growing trend towards developing technology that can suppress background noise in real-time. With the rise of game streaming and online gaming, there has been an increasing demand for high-quality audio solutions that can minimize distractions and improve overall gaming experiences. The Aegis is a step in this direction, offering users a convenient and effective solution for managing their audio environment.

As we look to the future, it's clear that desktop microphones with active noise suppression will play an increasingly important role in the world of gaming. Will they become the long-term solution for gamers looking to improve their audio quality? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain - the Aegis has already made a significant impact on the industry and offers a promising alternative to traditional headset solutions.

In conclusion, the Aegis desktop microphone is an innovative solution for gamers looking to improve their audio quality without having to wear a headset. With its features, ease of use, and impressive performance in testing, it's clear that this device has the potential to revolutionize the way we experience audio in gaming. Whether or not it becomes the long-term solution remains to be seen, but one thing is certain - the Aegis has already made a significant impact on the industry and will likely continue to be a popular choice among gamers looking for high-quality audio solutions.

a headset okay so there are a couple of reasons that many gamers wear headsets number one is that with the microphone nice and close to your mouth it is inherently good at well picking up your voice and ignoring other sounds around you because you can turn the gain quite low and your voice will be relative to anything surrounding you quite a lot louder and number two is out of consideration for your fellow Gamers because everyone else in your raiding party doesn't necessarily want to hear the death metal that you're blasting on your speakers instead of the in-game background music but some people don't like to wear headsets whether it's to avoid the aforementioned headset hair or just for Comfort reasons and I mean hey maybe you just spent a bunch of money on a freaking awesome new speaker system you'd like to use instead of your gaming headphones and that is where the agis comes in it's a mic that sits flat on your desk and is able to listen to and suppress background noise actively on the top the Aegis has a volume control knob an LED volume indicator a nice and large mute button and the microphone at the back you'll find a micro USB port and a DSP switch so the setup process is pretty short and sweet first put the mic somewhere less than 60 cm that's about 2 fet away from you where you will be speaking from in you're sitting then go to the a media website and download the Aegis voice engine or the AV as I call it because this mic is about whether you're an a or an have not the next step is to install the software and then follow the onscreen instructions to connect the mic it'll automatically take you through the calibration and you are set now Jack tested it out with Aver media's own ballista Trinity speaker system and here are some recordings of

the drag oh did I get the other guy though yes I did so I'll let you guys be the judge as to how far a media has come so so far they have committed to better software and further calibration in the future to refine the speaker sound suppression technology but the most interesting thing about this product is that it's really cool to see this sort of Technology coming to market now that it seems
