Le TC Helicon GoXLR MINI est un incontournable pour tout créateur de contenu ou streamer. Cet appareil compact offre une solution complète pour le mélange audio en direct avec une interface USB/audio et un préampli de qualité.
L’installation a été incroyablement simple, et la configuration via le logiciel dédié est conviviale. Les commandes tactiles sur l’appareil lui-même facilitent l’ajustement des niveaux audio en direct sans avoir à basculer entre différentes fenêtres sur l’ordinateur.
Le préampli intégré est puissant et permet d’obtenir un son clair et net. Cela a considérablement amélioré la qualité de mon audio en direct, éliminant les bruits indésirables et offrant une expérience sonore plus professionnelle.
Les options de personnalisation sont également impressionnantes. La possibilité de programmer des effets sonores, d’ajuster les niveaux de voix et de musique, ainsi que de contrôler d’autres éléments audio en temps réel est un avantage majeur pour mes diffusions.
La qualité de construction est solide, et la compacité du GoXLR MINI le rend facile à intégrer dans n’importe quel espace de travail.

Bonjour à tous, j’ai acheté un Shure SM7B que j’utilise avec un bras et/ou pied de Micro Rode PSA1 et avec pour carte son une GOXLR mini
Pour le micro la qualité est top après quelques réglages via des tutos sur YouTube, le rendu audio est génial, j’utilise Adobe Audition pour des podcast audio et autre. Pour ceux ayant commander le Shure SM7B attention un autre “Bonnet” existe ne le jeter pas c’est un anti vent.
Le bras ou pied de micro (appelé le comme vous voulez) du PSA 1, est parfait. le micro Shure SM7B étant un micro lourd (+ de 700 grammes) les deux forme un très beau couple
Et enfin la GO XLR Mini nécessite d’installer sur son ordinateur la GO XLR APP, une application qui est en Anglais ou en chinois. Mais la aussi avec quelques tuto sur YouTube vous devriez vous en sortir.
pour mon Casque j’ai un DT 770 Pro, un peut chère car je pense que au même prix il peut y avoir mieux mais bon la je rentre chipote.
Souris d’ordinateur Bluetooth, SteelSeries 3 Wireless. Un petit coup de cœur pour celle-ci, attention elle nécessitera un petit réglage en fonction de votre tapis de souris ou surface car moi je la trouvais très lente dans son déplacement ainsi que la roulette pour faire défiler les pages de haut en bas. Mais après réglages nickel, elle s’éteint toute seule quand on ne l’utilise pas et pour la rallumer vous bouger ou faire un petit clique.

I’ve been using this mixer for about a week now. There’s a lot of good things (and a few oddities) I’d like to go over. Let’s go over it all! [Note: I use a one-PC setup to broadcast all sorts of different things and it works just fine for that configuration. It doesn’t seem overly complicated to use this for a 2-PC setup, but I don’t have any direct input on that.]
AMPLIFICATION: My primary concern when buying this was “Can this make my microphone audible? Will there be any noise?” I use a Rode Procaster, a very quiet dynamic mic that requires some help to be audible. In the past, cheaper mixers have let me down. I’m happy to report that this wasn’t an issue at all with the GoXLR; I come in loud and clear with some room to spare. I don’t hear any noise unless I really crank it all the way up. My former setup was an affordable preamp/mixer combo and I did have some noise issues then. Both of those are in the closet now.
MIXER/FADERS: The mixer side of the GoXLR, without a complicated mess of cables, lets you independently fade music, game, system, mic and other channels. That’s a new function for me. I’ve have had to use virtual audio cables in the past, because trying to physically separate those channels in the manner I required was not realistic on a physical mixer. This mixer simplified the routing and gave me a higher level of control over all of these volume levels. The mute buttons can be configured to do special things too rather than just globally mute; You can set it to only mute your mic in discord, or on stream. There’s only the 4 faders on the GoXLR, so If you need more than 4, you’ll have to work around the limitation. There have been a few hiccups too. For example, one reboot didn’t open the software correctly and my system channel was muted until I reopened the software.
VOICE EFFECTS: The effects are the largest section on the mixer, so they’re obviously a huge selling point. I feel like this is where my priorities shifted a bit. Most of the effects on the GoXLR are things I’ve seen and used before. I like voice effects alright, but I won’t be adjusting them on the fly ever, and that’s the purpose of most of these knobs. I’m just going to design 6 presets, maybe adjust the reverb sometimes and go. You have more fine-tuned control in the software which you then save to a preset button anyway, so having knobs for things like Gender and Pitch feels like a wasted opportunity for other controls. There are some basic things missing on the device and it aggravates me a bit that the focus was placed here instead (Headphone volume has to be on a fader too? Mic playback volume knob?? Power switch???) The effects controls that I’ve seen often on other mixers seem like a more effective way to save on space, though a bit clunkier… (Choose a number for the effect, set the power of the effect and turn it on.)
SAMPLER CREATOR/PLAYER: The sampler, on the other hand, is incredible. It works like a charm. I can record myself or my discord friends on the fly and that’s something unique and powerfully fun. I actually wish this section were larger than it is because it is the most special and interesting part of the product for me! 12 Samples runs out real fast when you have lots of sound clips and new recordings being made! The software lets you randomize sound effects on buttons and create playlists of a sort. I love the features, and will probably design multiple profiles to help organize my sound bank.
CUSTOMIZATION: The lighting is great. You don’t have a ton of colors on it, but you can easily make a rainbow like in my attached image. Lots of interesting settings you can do to the fader volume bars and effects knobs. You can have gradients for volume or solid, lights above and below the level can all be colored on everything. The fader can be set to a monitor or just a solid bar on each source. You can also set the icons and text above each fader, and color those too! For added flare worth mentioning, the mechanized faders roll up and down when you hit mute or switch profiles. They sync up with the software and one will control the other. It’s a real neat visual.
PROS:
+The built-in Pre-amp, compressor, de-esser, and equalization options are solid. This stuff alone makes the device worth around the price to me honestly, being that its all-in-one. I feel like this should be your biggest concern with an audio device, and everything else is fluff… The hardware is good and will do the job you need it to do! You probably won’t need your old pre-amp any more.
+Hoo boy, that sampler!!!
+Has the means to solve digital mixing problems, which is often a complicated task to solve.
+Effects are fairly configurable and come with enough presets to satisfy most people.
+The mute buttons are configurable and easily accessible.
+Nice, large cough button that does the job well. The BLEEP button is fun, though I try not to over-use it myself!
+Configurable lightshow. Very attractive to look at. Easy to set up and profile the color schemes. The customization really makes it feel like a modern device.
+Everything feels nice. I like the feel of the buttons and the faders.
+In general, it’s very easy to see what’s on and off, and you can configure it to be even easier if you’re concerned about that. You can set the on/off lights to anything you want, dimmed or off.
+Size. It’s not tiny, but it is almost half the size of my old mixer and I’m real happy about that. I’m also happy that I use just about everything on the mixer, for a change.
CONS:
-You only have one port for a mic. If you want a second mic, you’re going to need… another mixer to plug into this mixer.
-Only 4 faders. The software lets you control the volume of many more than 4 devices. You’ll have to pick and choose what’s important for you to fade and set the rest in software.
-No headphone volume control knob means you’ll either control your headphone volume elsewhere, or set it to a fader. Seems like an odd thing to skip out on.
-No volume control for mic playback at all, even in the software. Again, this seems an odd thing to skip out on. There IS a way to shut off the mic playback in the software.
-No power button anywhere? I enjoy the lights when I’m awake, but not when it’s bedtime! So I find myself unplugging the device when I’m done for the day. But I make sure my computer is off too before I do that, or it causes hiccups. I hear they are implementing a sleep mode of some kind in the future, but it isn’t here at the time of this review.
-Because so much of the functionality is software-driven, it’s likely to cause headaches down the road. As I said earlier, I’ve already encountered times where my system volume just isn’t on at all, and I had to mess with rebooting the software to fix it.
Ultimately, what we have here is a great mixer that will consolidate all your devices into one. The mixers I’ve had before have been enormous 12-channel beasts with me only using 10% of the board, for less control than this device provides… I use nearly everything on here, and I come out sounding great. I gotta give it an ace rating for that, even if I do think they could improve on it. I do think it is missing a few minor things, and I’m working around those. For example, I’m using my keyboard’s volume control to control my headphone volume. I’m really happy that I stumbled upon this product, because there really isn’t anything out there like it, and for this price.
Mr. Blast –
I purchased my first one with a defective USB port. If you plug it in too far, it doesn’t work. If you don’t plug it in far enough, it doesn’t work. You have to plug it in all the way, then back it out about 1/8th of an inch. A bit frustrated I returned it as defective and ordered another. It’s the same way on the new one. I could understand the batting average at this point and just know if there’s an issue, it’s probably the USB port.
Occasionally after waking my PC from sleep mode, the software locks up. Simple to end task the software and restart, but just issues you might want to know about. Tech support offered little help other than asking if my PC was plugged in, and if my internet was working. they didn’t bother to understand the problem, just simply blame my PC knowledge or my PC itself. Pretty sure something better is coming soon from a competitor but I’ve been happy with this for almost 2 years.
Mr. Blast –
**The team is no longer updating their GoXLR software, if we ever have one again it’ll be developed by consumers. Buy the GoXLR at your own risk.”
As for the stand, it’s excellent and does it’s job admirably. Very sturdy, quality metal, multiple angles to use, makes it easier to stream without having to reach or lean over the GoXLR. It’s overpriced but there’s no denying how helpful it. There was a sale for $52 and one for $42 – at the $40 price point it’s more tolerable.

Definitely requires some knowledge of audio and learning the software (it’s required to use the Go XLR) and to EQ your mic. I’m using it with the shure sm7b and once the software was configured my mic sounds amazing. Alot of people are scared to try out and use this product because of the lack of new software updates, as of today mine still works just fine and there is a third party software team currently updating and keeping up with the Go XLR and when the official software stops working, you can use the third party software. Overall I would recommend it as I use it everyday for content creation.
