Excellent Audio Quality
Of all things, the microphone you use has the biggest effect on your recordings. It has to capture voices and instruments in the highest possible quality. That’s why the Trust GXT 258 Fyru 4-in-1 Streaming Microphone is built to deliver crystal clear and rich recordings of a near-professional studio quality.
Key features
Record Your Way: 4 Different Patterns
The Fyru allows for recording in 4 different ways, optimised for any situation. Use cardioid if you want to get a clear recording without background noises – ideal for one-person podcasts. Opt for bidirectional if you’re recording a duet or conducting an interview. Stereo is the go-to pattern to record a stereo music setting, or you can capture all surrounding sounds with the omnidirectional pattern, perfect if you’re hosting a group-podcast.
Extra Pro Features
To perfect your recordings, you can listen to them in real-time, with the Fyru’s zero-latency headphone monitoring port. Furthermore, you can regulate your settings with convenient microphone gain, mute and headphone volume knobs on the front of the microphone. And the internal pop filter filters out plosives and fricatives (unwanted sounds from letters like P and F) for even smoother recordings.

The best mode depends on the situation and your personal preference. In general we advise the following:

This is the preferred mode if you are sitting directly in front of the microphone, e.g. for gaming or live streaming. - Bi-directional. Press the top button 2x, 2 indicators will be lit (top and bottom).
This is the preferred mode if you are talking with another person, each on an opposite side of the microphone. - Stereo. Press the top button 3x, 2 indicators will be lit (left and right).
This is the preferred mode if you are playing an instrument, e.g. your guitar, in front of the microphone. - Omni-directional. Press the top button 4x, all 4 indicators will be lit.
This is the preferred mode if you are with a group of peope, located on all sides of the microphone.
You switch on/off the microphone by pressing the microphone volume button on the front.
If you want the music to be loud, but the monitor volume low, you turn the volume button on the microphone high, and keep the volume in the playback/mic levels low.

The pick-up pattern of a microphone is the sensitivity to sound relative to the direction or angle from which the sound arrives, or how well the microphone "picks up" the sound from different directions. The most common types are: Cardioid, Omnidirectional, Unidirectional, Bidirectional.
CARDIOID
The most commonly used pattern is most sensitive at 0° (the front) and least sensitive at 180° (the back). This isolates it from unwanted ambient sound. You can use this for most recording applications. It is easy to get a good signal as the cardioid pattern blends out a bad sounding room, a noisy fan in the background, etc.
OMNIDIRECTIONAL
The omnidirectional microphone has equal sensitivity at all angles. This means it picks up sound evenly from all directions. Therefore, the microphone need not be aimed in a certain direction. It will be especially useful in good sounding rooms.
UNIDIRECTIONAL
Unidirectional microphones are most sensitive to sound arriving from directly in front (at 0°) and less sensitive in other directions. This makes unidirectional microphones effective at isolating the desired sound from both unwanted sound and ambient noise.
BIDIRECTIONAL
A bidirectional microphone (with figure-8 pattern) picks up the sound from in front of the microphone (at 0°) and from the rear (at 180°), but not the side (at 90° and 270°). It can be beneficial in situations where you do not want a signal coming from a 90° angle to bleed into the microphone.
The sample rate of this microphone is as follows:
- 96Khz for the 'playback' sound
- 48Khz for the 'recording' sound.
So if you connect your headset to the microphone, you can listen with 96Khz sample rate. But if you record, you record with max. 48Khz.
