I just started recording stuff on my switch with an old HDMI capture card I found laying around and it doesn't have a mic input. It's a cheap capture card that just records to a flashdrive, and can't be connected to a PC so I can't use OBS or something to record video and audio so I have to use another device and manually sync the audio (me talking) to the video. The only other mic I have is a studio mic I use for my PC and it would be a pain to set it up in my living room with my phantom power supply (although I have a Behringer U-Phoria UM2 which does phantom power over USB) and my scissor mount. I would set it up in my computer room if I could but my desk is barely big enough for what I use it for.

So the idea that popped into my mind is what about a pair of earbuds with a good inline mic? I have Beats Tour 2 Earbuds that I won in a contest awhile back but their inline mic isn't that good. So are there any earbuds or headphones with a good inline mic that won't cost $100? 

Or would I be able to use my USB C OTG adapter to connect my UM2 to my phone and record my studio mic?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
