Mic with speakers

[spwath]

Is there any way to have a mic and speakers and not have the mic pic up the speakers?
 

And is there any mics that are good at this?

I believe they're called "headphones."

 

You'd have to use some pretty good cancellation software that reads what the speakers are outputting and removes those audio waves from what the mic is picking up but it never truly works out perfectly. There is the tried and true muting the microphone on an application basis like Skype does on mobile but that's iffy.

Have the mic closer to your mouth than the speakers and enable a minimum volume to transmit setting, teamspeak has this, there are probably mixer programs that do it too. HOWEVER when you talk they will still hear the sound (seriously though, just use a push to talk).

 

Any unidirectional mic will do very well at this and might not even require a minimum volume to transmit setting.

 

A tiny bit out of your price range but the modmic 4 unidirectional has amazing quality and I can be blasting music while in teamspeak and people can BARELY hear it when I talk.

I'll put it like this:

There's no perfect way.

Would a blue snowball work?

I can get one cheap on craigslist

It'd work okay depending if it only picks up sound from one direction. I know there's a microphone type that picks up sounds from in front and behind, and uses the audio from behind for noise cancelling but hell if I could remember the name of it. That would work pretty well, if you have the speakers behind it.

Could buy a hairband thing and clip it on to that.. AHAHA

glue a mod mic to your face.

there probably is something that gets rid of the noise from the speakers when the mic records sounds

I have a same setup the way you do. I have my mic and my speakers. Realtek has this options to disable mic feedback. My mic is positioned right in front of my speakers.

Dynamic mics are the best for only getting voice. They just focus on what's right in front of them.

Add maybe $10 and maybe, just maybe, the dynamic mic from Audio Technica would help you out on that.
