The best mic for streaming and recording music around 75-100 USD

Lilninjsways

I am trying to find an excellent standalone mic for my streaming and my music for cheap. I saw a thing on Amazon where its a whole combo for 50 or 60 USD where its the mic and the boom arm and all these parts, but that seemed fishy for something cheaper than some mics out there that don't sound too hot. 

 

I know nothing really about mic's since I've used the one on my razer Kraken pro's for streaming and my mic from my s10+ for music

 

Could anyone please help? Thank you!

If you're actually trying to do more professional stuff you probably want a mixer + XLR microphone set up.

Course the price is going to be higher.

Also this thing exists

 

 

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I would take a USB mic any day. Cheap mixers really really suck in my experience

AT2020 on sale is around 100$

What does this come with? Is it just the mic, or is there a stand? If there isn't a stand, are there any cheap one's to get? I've heard about these from underground artists, and they sound good is there anything I need extra with this?

I do not stream but i play lots of games with my buddies and use discord and this combo for me works great and sounds good my friends say.

You can use that phantom power or if you want more control grab a Behringer UMC 22 or scarlett solo. If you got more cash to spend get the AT2020 or 2035. But i am really impressed with the NW-700
