Hi,
I'm looking for a mic, preferably under $100, to use for Twitch streaming and Youtube recording. The mic in my headset is awful. Currently I'm using my webcam mic, which isn't a lot better. The main issue is how quiet the audio output is, even when fully boosted. I have to set XSplit to 10% in game volume and 100% mic volume just to have them sync up, and everyone who watches the youtube videos has to crank their speakers up. I'm looking for something I can put on a stand on my desk, close to my mouth (or even suspend it downward from some kind of stand) so it can pick up my voice better and hopefully not pick up far away noises as much.
Any recommendations? I don't know anything about mics.
TIA
