Microphones Used

Today I shall talk about what types of Microphones I have used on my channel before!

The very first tool used to record my voice on my channel was an ENV Touch cellphone! (Super lame) I think I used this maybe for my first couple of videos on my channel. I didn't have any official microphone at the time so I went with that and at the time you could only upload to 10 minutes on Youtube so it was doable!

Then after a week or two my friend Devon gave me a Rockband mic for his Xbox 360 because it was USB and worked on my laptop! So for maybe half a year I used that microphone on my channel and it worked well! It wasn't the best quality but hey it picked up my voice and I was able to be heard!

Finally I went out and purchased myself a cheap $18 logitech headset and I used that for about 3 years. It also wasn't super good quality but it was way better than my Rockband mic! I really loved this headset, it was a little clunky but it got the job done. (Sorry I don't have the exact model).

Sadly back in March (2013) the headset died and was no longer usable. I purchased a new logitech headset (USB because the ports on my laptop were failing) and I had a buzzing problem so I returned it and bought another logitech one that used the headset/microphone jacks on my laptop but discovered that they were failing. So I was SOL and ended up taking like a 3 month break off youtube till finally I bought that USB headset again and that is currently what i'm using today! It has a buzzing problem but isn't noticeable with game audio playing.
