The Yeti GX uses LIGHTSYNC tech to allow you to control two separate RGB light zones on the mic itself, and then sync them up with other G devices. The mic's design is super unique, but sleek enough to slot right into your existing game streaming rig, whether you choose to mount it to a boom arm or attach it to the included desktop stand. WHO: Anyone looking to level up their streaming game with just one brilliant piece of gear should not go past the Yeti GX.
