Roccat torch This ROCCAT microphone also features the brand's famous AIMO lighting; With three independent lighting zones that change color depending on the pattern chosen for recording or the mode selected on the microphone, the optional configuration software is as complete and simple as the rest of the brand's peripherals. Of what ROCCAT has not mentioned anything in the technical specifications of this microphone for streaming is whether it has a noise cancellation system, active or passive, so it is a piece of information that for now is unknown but since they do not mention it we can assume you don't have any technology in place. Yes, they have said that the micro has an anti-pop filter, but since the device is not seen in the product images, we understand that it is internal and that therefore the user should not worry about its maintenance or purchasing a separate one; The anti-pop filter is essential for microphones that are intended to be used to capture voices, since it largely avoids the noise that we all make unconsciously when we expel air through our mouth when speaking and that, although we do not notice it speaking, in a recording be quite noticeable and annoying.
