Two Things I'd Like to see from Razer

Well, realistically one, but two would be nice.

1. A high quality DAC. I know it would be a lot to ask for a PCIE sound card, so I'll settle with a DAC. There are a lot of great DACs on the market, but I feel that this is an area that Razer should explore. I will always prefer hardware over software control. Something along the lines of the Mixamp or if they wanna go big, like the Sound Blaster AE-9 DAC (without xlr input). What I would like to see in this is the versatility and inputs of the Mixamp, but with better audio and amplification. Now what would make it huge, is if it is made to work along side the GOXLR or other audio interfaces. Which goes into my second point, which I feel Razer could really shine (if they don't cheap out on it), especially if they could do usb passthrough.

2. A GOXLR competitor. A Razer mixer. Something hardware and easy to use/control. And this is truly why I put this post in the broadcaster section.

Mixers tend to be huge for streamers. Between audio control over the microphone, and the output of all audio to the stream. I feel there are some areas that TC Helicon doesn't shine, but it is still a great seller due to its user friendly nature. What I would love to see Razer do, is have the GOXLR and the Rodecaster Pro in one unit. The ease of use of the goxlr, the bleep, the voice effects, the mechanical faders, but I would like the bluetooth input capability of the Rodecaster, as well as usb input. It would be really cool if they could do a usb passthrough on a fader.

Why a DAC and Mixer combo? Well, when running a dual stream PC set up, the second streaming PC only sees one audio input, where as the main pc for gaming, has all the control. The Mixer would be for what stream hears, and the DAC is for what the user hears. This could still apply to single device set ups, however there is more direct control via the Mixer.

Idk. I'm just rambling on things I'd like to have that wouldn't cost a fortune. Thanks for reading.

Nice idea both the DAC and Audio macro device, we can wait and see what the future Razer live events will reveal.
