Looking for a mic

[Xione]

So apparently my head was too big for my current headset and it caused stress fractures above the earcups so now I feel like going with a seperate headset and mic instead of a headset this time around.

What I'd like to know is what's a good mic for skyping with friends/teamspeak

I already got some headphones in mind it's just finding a mic that's causing me trouble on what would be good to use since this is my first time trying this set up

It clips to the wire of your headphone. I position mine about shoulder height. Use with TS3 and Skype and it sounds great.

When doing research on it I read that some people had issues with it not picking up your voice. It picks mine up great and I'm convinced that those people are just dumb about how to position the mic correctly.

Oh cool thanks for this. Even more so because it's isn't that expensive!

I personally use an Audio Technica AT2020 USB, but that might be out of your price range for just using it for Skype and TS.

Budget? And what matters more to you, pickup patern, or vocal quality?
