Redragon RD-GM100 Seyfert Omnidirectional 3.5mm AUX Condenser Gaming Microphone

It works well with clear audio and the aux input means no more random chipmunk-style voice recording problems like I had with my old USB mic.

Criticisms? It needs more mounting options. The tripod takes up some desk space and a c-clamp would be appreciated. But - it's built to a price and you get what you pay for. That said, the tripod is removable allowing you to mount it with a bolt, but that would require drilling into your desk or rolling some other solution. The microphone itself has no mounting options so you're forced to use the included stand body to hold it.

The extensible arm for the breath screen is, in my opinion, too long. It allows for a greater range of positioning but since the tripod design forces you to place the mic out of the way of your mouse area etc, it isn't very practical since you'd be forced to place the microphone in front of your chest for it to have any effect. The arm isn't removable either so if you don't want to use the screen you sit with a long pokey bit permanently fixed to the microphone. I just placed the microphone behind my monitor so I can't see it and it does the job.
