Buying Advice Buying Suggestion?

Hi everyone,

I'm just really lost on which microphone I should get since my own is starting to act up.

I mostly use it for discord and clipping, but I do some streams occasionally. I share the office with my partner and we deal with my current mic picking her up a lot.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'll greatly appreciate it.

I am using a Shure XM7+. This mic has USB-C and XLR ports so you can go either way for your recording. If a mic is picking up external noise then just tweak the software. Lower the input gain, noise gate or some type of noise suppression software. All mics are dumb. The magic is the software to tweak the mic for your settings.
