HyperX QuadCast S Gain Control Knob Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

If your microphone has any distortion in tone, such as the audio being too quiet, or too loud, then there may be a problem with the gain control knob. This guide will demonstrate how to simply remove the gain control knob, which can allow access to the I/O board of the microphone. Keep in mind that this guide highlights removing the gain control knob, and not how to remove the I/O board.

      • Set the microphone on a flat surface.

      • Pull each of the support bands upwards and off of the notches to release the microphone from its base.

      • There are four support bands in total, but it does not matter which band you choose to take off first.

      • Pull outwards from the microphone to release the gain control knob.

      • It will not take much force to release the knob from the microphone. Be aware that a small "pop" may be heard once the knob is unplugged.
