This is what I got http://www.gearbest.com/speakers/pp_261806.html?wid=21

It the mic and this arm were both on sale for like 12$ each

doesnt that thing get in your way

Nah

Clamped on the back of my desk sitting between my two displays

Sits boomed way over my head when not in use

You can have it arcing over your desktop

And angle the microphone downwards

Just look up setups and you'll see how other people have set it up

Yeah, I just discovered a better way, though. Where it`s between my keyboard and face. Picks up my voice much better without ever being in the way

Got an older picture. Taken when it was dark out, and with my shitty old phone. Excuse the darkness and lack of quality.

When angled that way, I would just pull it down so the mic was at about forehead height.

Meme'ing aside, aren't the condenser mics severely overkill for 99% of people, when cheap, good lapel mics exists?

The mic on my headset is perfectly adequate.

Lapel mics are very susceptible to cable noise and whatnot

And vibration

"Hey OP, just wanted to say you're doing a great job, the news is just like before. One thing tho, I feel like you're a bit more shilly than the previous OP.
Think you'd better drop the discord and chinkshit links before they get abused again and we get another thread drama.

Cheers!"

Lol what?

Some shitstirrer in the thread

Huh.. can`t tell if troll or retard.

@Aerione Right, yes, of course, they aren't as good as condenser mics, no doubt about that. But I don't believe that condenser mics are worth the effort, money and space it takes, since it's really overkill for most people.

Well, 23 bucks isn't much

Dude, if you saw how much pne of those used to cost

But I guess

Closer to 40-50 with the mic, stand, and phantom PSU

But that`s still really cheap for the quality you get.

If you get an arm, I suppose you could get a desktop tripod and save 10-15$ there.

Nah

Mic + stand is 23 bucks

And that used to be Studio shit ten years ago

Still need phantom power.

You can get away very cheaply if you've got an external sound card

What, the Somake? It was established it was pretty bad

Nah

The Somake is pretty bad indeed

I bought one just to try it out, and it was far worse than the shitty USB audio soundcard I got years ago

Lmao, "Oddly Jameson bottle shaped vr box arrives"

@tablecat And oh, I was referring to discrete sound cards

Didn't realize I typed "external"

My SB Audigy Live is actually pretty capable of driving the mic, although I still prefer the phantom power
