A must-have for any work calls, the Sound Blaster PLAY! 4 is designed to solve your video call woes by simplifying the way you communicate
Key Features
- AUTO MIC MUTE AND UNMUTE WITH VOICEDETECT FEATURE – Avoid fumbling over your mic mute button in a video call with our VoiceDetect feature, which mutes you automatically when you stop speaking, and unmutes you instantly as you start speaking. If you need to talk to someone on the side, disable the VoiceDetect feature temporarily by manually pressing on the physical mic mute button, and reactivate the VoiceDetect feature by pressing on the same button
- TWO-WAY NOISE CANCELLATION WITH NOISECLEAN FEATURES – Reduce unwanted background noise during an online work call from both ends of the conversation with the NoiseClean features. NoiseClean-out works to remove noise on your end by suppressing your static background noise like vacuum cleaning, so you can be heard clearly by the others. On the other end, NoiseClean-in does the same to the incoming audio of your co-workers, so you can hear them clearly in your headphones—minus their noise
- SUPER EASY TO SET UP – VoiceDetect and NoiseClean are part of our SmartComms Kit's suite of smart communication features. Simply plug the PLAY! 4 to your PC, download the Creative app (for Windows 10 and later) to get started, or further customize them via the Advanced settings. The software also comes with Sound Blaster Acoustic Engine, our suite of industry-leading audio processing technology like Surround immersion, and CrystalVoice that enhances voice clarity during video calls
- BUILT-IN EQ MODES FOR ENHANCED AUDIO – Enhance your sound further with the Bass Boost and Dynamic EQs via the EQ button located on the Sound Blaster PLAY! 4. Hear deeper, richer bass with Bass Boost EQ, or expand your soundstage by boosting low–high frequencies with the Dynamic EQ. Sound Blaster PLAY! 4 is powered by hi-res audio with a 192 kHz / 24-bit DAC to deliver clean audio clarity at 110 dB; audio sounds much clearer and richer than the default audio on your computers and laptops
