Intro

the first mic truly designed for gaming
_

MINIMAL designers collaborated with SteelSeries to design and develop Alias & Alias Pro, two best-in-class mics designed specifically for streaming. With gaming more popular and more inclusive than ever, our goal was to design a set of mics that met the functional requirements needed by gamers and streamers while still feeling approachable and professional.

Alias & Alias Pro were created to simplify the toolkit needed for streaming while providing high quality sound and user-friendly setup. They both feature a larger capsule for a wider vocal range capture and are powered by Sonar, SteelSeries’ all-in-one streaming sound studio that boasts features like AI noise cancellation and easy-to-use live audio mixing.

DESIGN DETAILS

Approachable, functional, professional

At their core, Alias & Alias Pro exist to simplify the user experience around steaming while you game and their design reflects that same idea. Built with the modern gamer in mind, we designed these mics to feel approachable and professional with a minimalist fabric-wrapped design built around functional details like the shock mount that adds visual interest while also reducing unwanted vibrations to create clearer sound, the tactile dial controls that make live audio mixing easily accessible, and the customizable indirect lighting that makes users feel immersed in the game.
