Razer launches discreet headset for broadcasters

Razer announced the Razer Ifrit, a feature-packed, discreet headset for broadcasters who need more freedom on camera but require professional-quality sound via the adjustable condenser microphone. Ifrit has a low-profile dual earset design with a professional-grade, adjustable condenser microphone and flat frequency response in-ear headphones – perfect for broadcasters needing minimal visibility of their audio equipment but still deliver professional quality audio to their recordings.The ergonomic design of the Razer Ifrit is perfect for broadcasters who want to avoid bulky headsets or need free movement for creative-based and mobile broadcasts. The adjustable arm of the unidirectional condenser microphone delivers continuous high-quality voice audio equal to a traditional desktop or boom mounted microphone, but giving broadcasters even more freedom of movement.

“With non-gaming live streaming becoming more popular, we designed the Razer Ifrit to appeal to broadcasters who want a lightweight, high-quality solution to their broadcast audio needs,” says Min-Liang Tan, Razer co-founder and CEO. “Whether you’re IRL streaming, gaming, painting, cosplay costume building or cooking, the Razer Ifrit is the perfect headset to deliver audio to your viewers without bulky headphones and microphones getting in the way of what you do or what your viewers see.”

The Razer Ifrit is especially suitable for mobile broadcasters with a low profile, easily transportable design and simple, single-wire connection. The microphone brings clarity and fidelity to mobile streaming that is far superior to standard mobile handset microphones. It is also compatible with both Xbox One and PS4 through the connection on the joypad or via the Razer Audio Enhancer on the PS4.

The Razer Ifrit is complemented by the Razer USB Audio Enhancer, a USB-to-analogue converter that focuses on improving the quality of the microphone and allows two Razer Ifrit headsets to be connected to one PC, for dual streaming with two broadcasters at once.

The Razer USB Audio Enhancer works with any analogue headset fitted with a 3.5mm jack and is available separately, or as part of the Razer Ifrit package.
