As a brand, BEACN seemed to pop up out of nowhere. A Canadian upstart aiming to quickly take its place alongside the major players when it comes to top-end gear for streamers. The BEACN Mic is their debut microphone and they aren’t wasting any time, at $279/£286 it’s joining the game alongside some of the best microphones for streaming and gaming.
A broadcast dynamic microphone, the BEACN Mic promises a raft of features designed to help streamers and podcasters sound their best all with the simplicity of a USB connection. A premium price point brings with it premium expectations though, so BEACN has a lot to do to catch the eye of content creators in a crowded market. I tested the BEACN Mic alongside the BEACN Mix Create, its audio controller counterpart, to see how they both fit into my streaming setup.
