WHY CHOOSE THE KIT
More than a mic: control what you hear, too.
A microphone gives your teammates your voice. This kit also puts your game, chat and music levels under your fingers. Its value is the convenience you use every session: less hunting through audio windows, more control from your desk.
A microphone on its own
Captures your voice for Discord, recordings and streams.
What the Starter Kit adds
A screen, volume knobs and shortcut buttons for your PC audio, alongside the included microphone.
Ready to connect
Mic, controller, stand, foam and USB cables are included. Bring your Windows PC and compatible headphones.
CONTROL WITHOUT ALT-TABBING
Hear the callout over the game.
Assign your game, Discord and music in Stream Control. When the game gets too loud, turn its knob down without lowering everything else. The screen labels your sources; 4 controls are available at a time.
See your Discord controls in action.
See how to set up Discord volume and mute controls on Stream 100, so your chat controls are within reach while you play.
Official Hercules walkthroughs. Set up Stream Control and connect Discord first. Videos load only when you press play.
A DEDICATED VOICE MIC
Your voice on the mic. Your headset for listening.
Select HUD-600 as your mic in Discord or your streaming app. Its level knob and mute button stay within reach. Plug compatible wired headphones into its 3.5 mm output to hear PC audio and your own voice directly. The desk stand and foam are included.
SIMPLE CONNECTIONS
Connect the kit. Assign your apps. Play.
Plug Stream 100 and HUD-600 into your Windows PC with the 2 supplied USB cables. Install Stream Control, choose HUD-600 as your microphone, then assign your apps to the controller. Check your voice and volumes before joining a game. USB-C-only computers need suitable data cables or adapters.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT KIT
A good fit for regular PC gaming and Discord.
Choose Starter when you want a dedicated voice mic and quick control of several PC sounds. You can keep compatible headphones you already own. For an XLR mic interface and a separate audio mix for viewers, choose Stream Essentials Kit.

A few things to know.
What do I need to start?
A compatible Windows 10-or-later PC, 2 available USB connections, your voice/chat or streaming apps, and wired headphones. Install Hercules Stream Control, connect both devices, choose HUD-600 as your microphone and assign your app volumes. Test the sound before going live.
Follow the official Hercules installation guide, including the driver installation and computer restart. Windows 11 64-bit is recommended; updated Windows 10 64-bit is supported.
Can I use it with Mac or my phone?
The kit’s Stream Control software requires Windows 10 or later. This is not a Mac-only or phone-only streaming setup.
Is it useful if I game but do not stream?
Yes. Assign your Windows game, Discord and music in Stream Control, then adjust them from your desk. You do not need to livestream or have an audience to use the microphone and audio controls.
Why buy this instead of just a microphone?
You are buying two jobs in one kit: HUD-600 captures your voice; Stream 100 gives you a screen, knobs and shortcuts for controlling your PC audio. It is most useful when you regularly balance game sound, Discord and music. A microphone alone may be enough if voice capture is all you need.
Can I give viewers a different mix from my headphones?
For independent creator/audience mixes and an integrated XLR audio interface, choose Stream Essentials Kit. Stream Starter is the simpler PC audio-control and USB-microphone option.
What software is included?
Hercules Stream Control operates the controller and includes integrations for supported apps such as OBS, Streamlabs and Discord. A 3-month Voicemod Pro voucher is also included, subject to redemption terms. Paid third-party services are separate.
Can I keep my current gaming headset?
Yes, if it works with your PC. Select HUD-600 for microphone input and your headset for playback in your apps. For direct monitoring of your own voice from the mic, use compatible wired headphones in HUD-600’s 3.5 mm output. USB or wireless headsets connect through their own supported PC connection.
