Razer’s trio of new products aim to make you sound and look better on your stream. While at a desk, Razer’s $249.99 Audio Mixer offers four channels of audio control along with a variety of audio processing options, and the new $299 Chroma Key Light will keep you in the loop during broadcasts. But if you’re looking for something more mobile and portable, then Razer is also launching a $99 Seiren Bluetooth lavalier microphone for vlogging on the go.
the audio mixer offers an all-in-one interface for controlling audio during broadcasts and competes with the likes of TC Helicon GoXLR. Most of its interface is taken up by four sliders, each of which controls an audio channel, allowing you to set the relative volumes of your microphone with games, background music, and so on. There’s a mute switch for each channel, as well as a beep button if you want to censor your foul language.
Connections for the audio mixer include an XLR microphone input, optical input, USB-C, and 3.5mm line-in and line-out ports. Around the front is another pair of 3.5mm jacks for headphones and microphones. The mixer can be controlled with Razer’s Synapse software and also allows you to apply effects like echo or reverb to your voice. It requires a PC running Windows 10 or higher to run, but it can also handle audio from game consoles.

Meanwhile, the Seiren Bluetooth Lavalier Microphone is designed to offer a flexible, low-profile way to record audio on the go. It clips onto clothing, is equipped with an omnidirectional microphone, and comes with two windsocks to help with pops or background noise, whether you’re outside or inside. Offers up to six hours of battery life, which gadget grades it drops to four if you activate its AI-based noise suppression feature.

Finally, there is the $299 Key Light Chroma, which appears to be a competitor for Elgato’s $199 Key Light. Razer says its model offers up to 2,800 lumens of brightness, adjustable color and white temperatures, and an included stand to attach it to your desk. Its lighting can also be synced with other Razer Chroma devices to keep your desktop’s RGB light show constant.
Razer Audio Mixer, Razer Seiren BT and Razer Key Light Chroma are now available from Razer and authorized dealers.
