As I mentioned in a previous review, I do stream here and there strictly for fun and I don't take it super seriously. I was previously using the MV7 in USB mode, but I got talked into buying the GoXLR by a friend as they had nothing but good things to say about it, and that he didn't regret purchasing it at all. I was getting pretty fed up with the issue I was having with the MV7 (feel free to refer to my review of the mic for more info on my experience with it, but long story short, the gain level I set would reset back to the max level whenever I would restart my PC) - so I wanted to switch to XLR to remedy the issue, and I felt like the GoXLR was a good option as it also cut out the need to use submixes in OBS as I was able to get rid of the virtual cables I was using since all of that work is done on the GoXLR.The best part of the GoXLR is the fact it has the following built in: Noise gate, EQ, compressor and de-esser. The reason this is a great feature is because normally I would only be able to use those filters on my stream/recordings, as you can't add any of these features through Windows - so I have the effects on my microphone universally, meaning that I'm EQ'd not only on OBS, but also on the likes of Discord with friends.To me, the voice effects (pitch, reverb etc.) and sample pad are just an extra bonus, and I do find myself using them from time to time for comedic effect! I would have went with the GoXLR Mini, but I really liked the thought of the mechanical sliders, as well as the fact that the cost of getting the GoXLR Mini along with some decent voice changing/filter software and a sample pad would probably come to around the same price of the regular sized GoXLR anyways, and it is nice to have everything built into one robust unit.The only issues I have with the device are strictly due to software limitations, which can and probably will be fixed with future software updates from the TC Helicon team. Their Discord server is exceptional, as they are very active with not only tech support, but with sharing their planned features for future updates.100% recommend this unit, even just for general use, it is incredibly powerful. If you're a streamer also, it makes life so much easier with being able to split your game and system sound, so if you have sound alerts set up, you no longer have to battle with game audio being too loud, as you can assign it to a slider and control the volume independently of the system/alert sounds, and the same goes for the likes of music and Discord/voice chat audio.One thing I would love to see in the future is something like a GoXLR XL, or a GoXLR Pro, which has even an extra 2 sliders - as I feel like 6 channels/sliders you can assign sounds to would be a perfect number.

i use this with my Shure mv7 mic and its perfect for streaming or communications..you can isolate different audio sounds with easeif im watching something on twitch i can isolate my discord chat so i can here the stream better so easy.its easy to use and set up.its pretty straight forwardlooks amazingvery handy that you can mute different sections for quick responsemakes everything so much easier to stream or just normal life as you don't need to keep tabbing in and out to mute something.very good value for money still debating to get the bigger GO XLR as the mini is so good..yes its slightly expensive but it saves you so much time and makes everything easy..you can alter you mic sound with ease to make it sound how you want your mic to sound..the only problem i have with the GO XLR mini is that it dosent have a OFF button so you just put it into sleep mode in one of your profiles...i love how this has made my setup so easy for me to use and how quick i can do it..the colours are really good iits small enough that it dosent get in the way alsoall in all a very good product
