    Question Can anyone recommend a good microphone (not a headset)

    I am looking for a desk microphone that wont break the bank but is still good quality.

    I really dont like headsets, but would consider one that doesnt have the earphones.
    Really I would like a proper microphone for Skype and DDO.

    Got a good one? let me know please.

    A TeleFunken U-47? I think you can find them at Joe's Garage. You'll love it!

    I use this Logitech desktop microphone for myself and son and have no problems at all with it. Sells for about $29.99.

    Nysrock nailed it.

    The Logitech is a really good model, my W*** supplies

    And I have never heard any complaints.

    Don't know about desktop microphones. I usually buy the least-expensive clip-on I can find. The current one has lasted 3 1/2 years. I think I spent about $9 US on it.
    Once upon a time, I was part of a team, and we saved some children. That was long ago and far away, and, yes, I am that old.

    That would be this one as Nysrock didn't say what it was.

    Just remember, it will need to be plugged in before launching the game as it is usb.

    Im getting the Logitech desk mic. It's USB and not hanging around my neck.
    I have a headset but its not USB which causes problems (Windows Vs Sound MB sound drivers) and I dont like headphones.
    "Press F to cough into the mic!"... you know what i mean

    Thanks for your input.
