Here you will find the power button, as well as various ports like XLR, Line Out and two USB-C ports. The Stream Mixer of the SteelSeries Alias Pro is able to control two PCs at the same time &#8211; which is particularly exciting for streamers who use two systems.<\/p>\n<p>On the left side, we also find a 3.5 mm jack for connecting to headphones, while the front of the bottom features a customizable RGB light strip.<\/p>\n<p>The Stream Mixer also handles 48 volt phantom power to provide condenser microphones with the necessary power (without which the recording would be too quiet).

The suppression of ambient noise works quite well, but these (for example in the form of the fans of my notebook) penetrate more strongly into the recording than was the case with the USB counterpart.<\/p>\n<p>However, this can be remedied with a few simple steps in the accompanying software. It is also noticeable that the Alias Pro requires a relatively high amount of gain &#8211; for the test recording below, I set the control to about 75 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, I can&#8217;t say whether particularly gain-hungry mics like the legendary Shure SM7b will handle loud enough without an amp. But I think the power should be just enough. Here the amplifier in the Wave XLR offers a bit more reserves.<\/p><div class=\"losgehts-inhalt losgehts-entity-placement\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"losgehts-2829954344\"><div class=\"losgehts-adlabel\">Anzeige<\/div><script type=\"text\/plain\" data-tcf=\"waiting-for-consent\" data-id=\"405718\" data-bid=\"1\">PGRpdiBpZD0ibG9zZ2VodHMtODI0NjI4Mjk4IiBjbGFzcz0iZ2FzX2ZhbGxiYWNrLWFkXzQwNTcxOC0tcGxhY2VtZW50XzM0ODM4MyI+PHNjcmlwdCBhc3luYyBzcmM9Ii8vcGFnZWFkMi5nb29nbGVzeW5kaWNhdGlvbi5jb20vcGFnZWFkL2pzL2Fkc2J5Z29vZ2xlLmpzP2NsaWVudD1jYS1wdWItODE0ODc2ODgyMzgwNzMzMCIgY3Jvc3NvcmlnaW49ImFub255bW91cyI+PC9zY3JpcHQ+PGlucyBjbGFzcz0iYWRzYnlnb29nbGUiIHN0eWxlPSJkaXNwbGF5OmJsb2NrOyIgZGF0YS1hZC1jbGllbnQ9ImNhLXB1Yi04MTQ4NzY4ODIzODA3MzMwIiAKZGF0YS1hZC1zbG90PSI4NjQxNzg1MjY1IiAKZGF0YS1hZC1mb3JtYXQ9ImF1dG8iPjwvaW5zPgo8c2NyaXB0PiAKKGFkc2J5Z29vZ2xlID0gd2luZG93LmFkc2J5Z29vZ2xlIHx8IFtdKS5wdXNoKHt9KTsgCjwvc2NyaXB0Pgo8L2Rpdj4=<\/script><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-container brlbs-cmpnt-content-blocker brlbs-cmpnt-with-individual-styles\" data-borlabs-cookie-content-blocker-id=\"youtube-content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-content=\"PGlmcmFtZSB0aXRsZT0iU3RlZWxTZXJpZXMgQWxpYXMgUHJvIFhMUi1NaWtyb2ZvbiBUZXN0YXVmbmFobWUgLyBSZXZpZXciIHdpZHRoPSIxMjAwIiBoZWlnaHQ9IjY3NSIgc3JjPSJodHRwczovL3d3dy55b3V0dWJlLW5vY29va2llLmNvbS9lbWJlZC9vZGI4SzQtUUJpMD9mZWF0dXJlPW9lbWJlZCIgZnJhbWVib3JkZXI9IjAiIGFsbG93PSJhY2NlbGVyb21ldGVyOyBhdXRvcGxheTsgY2xpcGJvYXJkLXdyaXRlOyBlbmNyeXB0ZWQtbWVkaWE7IGd5cm9zY29wZTsgcGljdHVyZS1pbi1waWN0dXJlOyB3ZWItc2hhcmUiIHJlZmVycmVycG9saWN5PSJzdHJpY3Qtb3JpZ2luLXdoZW4tY3Jvc3Mtb3JpZ2luIiBhbGxvd2Z1bGxzY3JlZW4+PC9pZnJhbWU+\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-preset-c brlbs-cmpnt-cb-youtube\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-thumbnail\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/basic-tutorials.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/borlabs-cookie\/1\/yt_odb8K4-QBi0_hqdefault.jpg')\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-main\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-play-button\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-content\">\n<p class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-description\">Sie sehen gerade einen Platzhalterinhalt von <strong>YouTube<\/strong>.
