What mic are you using and would you recommend?
>>334751408
my AT2020 is pretty based
I use a Konami/Logitech mic on a mic arm. It's great for mumble and discord.
Shure SM57
Yes
>>334751408
Just use a shitty Walmart mic or a headset
>>334752543
>Fucking around with balanced mic inputs when you're just going to do some Let's Play shit.
Why?
>USB trash-tier mics
>Not having an interface or power supply for XLR microphones
fuckin plebs
>>334752895
>Not gaming in an isolation booth.
Pleb-o detected.
Blue Snowball with a pop filter.
>>334752849
Because you should have standards in everything you do.
Samsung Meteor Microphone.
Not too expensive, but also respectable quality. Nice design. Modular. Overall pretty decent.

>needing a pop filter
Do you just point your mouth directly to the mic or some shit?
>>334753682
Here we go with the pop filter shit again.
>>334753682
A little over the pop filter which is a fist away from the ball.
What kind of mic will make me a better streamer?
>>334753308
But nobody has standards in everything, something is always neglected. V
I just plug a pair of cheap earbuds into the microphone port
>>334753982
Whatever mic that turns you into a titty monster.
>>334753308
Even though with standard donesn't sometimes matter
>>334754171
What if it just makes me chubby?
>>334751451
I'd go for the AT2020
had a cheap yeti that I got off ebay for like 40 bucks for years, and then tried to get a boom for it to get it out of my face
getting something that will fit the yeti is extra thought, and their shock mounts are stupid expensive.
AT2020's are like $5 bucks and I'm using it with a $20 boom, much easier
>>334754238
>inuit armpits
what microphone will make me sound sexy
>>334751408
I got dis antlion modmic, it's aight but I got an early one with a mute button that works TOO well, so I taped it on.
>>334754387
Ur mums dick t b h mate
I don't even know what it is, or why I own it.
My friends are gone and I'm too paranoid about my voice to talk to others in online games. Not only that I'm pathetic to even talk to people in chat.it'd be nice if someone could shoot me
>>334754385
Thanks gor the high-speed dog pic.
>buying these shitty mics
Get a fucking Shure or Audio Technica.
>>334751408
Antlion Modmic

cheap zalman mic off amazon, cost me less than $10 and lasting me over a year so far. i dont sound bad at all but a crisp super high quality voice is not something i really need for skype calls, teamspeak and shit.
>>334754238
Get a Shure SM7b and remove the foam filter. Hang it from a suspension stand and pretend it's a BBC as much as possible. It will sound like shit with all the stand rattle but you'll still get subs.
one that doesn't make you look like some acapella youtube faggot.
my phone
This thing, but with the headphones part snapped off and the mic bit taped to the side of my monitor.
>>334754580
No problem, mane.
>not using a 3D binaural mic
It's like you don't even want superb audio quality, or to make fat stacks from asmr
>>334751408
From the thumbnail i thought it was chibi robo.
I use a CAD U37. I love it, but it does pick up my fan a lot so that sucks.
Cheap third party xbox mic
Functional but it's far too sensitive to use regularly
>>334754238
>>334753982
semen?
>>334753982
The Blue Yeti like the one in Op's pic is a pretty good cheaper mic.

Really good sound quality.

That sounds real nice but how does it do with background noise? Such as keyboard typing and or other stuff.
>>334758513

You can kinda hear the Xbox controller in the background. But an Xbox controller is a little louder then a keyboard.
>>334751408
Whatever as long as its not a fucking USB.
>>334758513
I think 2BF also used one for a while, I never noticed much clicking in their videos.

The t.bone SC 450 is a perfectly alright large membrane microphone for under 100$.
You cant however go wrong with a MXL 990, probably the best fucking workhorse around.
>>334761023
Don't be tricky.
>>334751408
20 dollar logitech mic attached to my headphones
works alright
>>334761079
pff, I'm just trying to make sure people stay away from hipster bullshit like the snowball and other products made in the seventh layer of hell.
>>334754762
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
>>334761369
Don't be tricky.
>>334762445
Fucking stop me.
