Recommended products for those who want a good sound quality at a reasonable price.

■ Selected! Low-cost USB Microphones
Since I'm not recording songs, I want an affordable microphone that can be used with Skype and Discord! Here are the items recommended for you.

Classic Pro / CDM80U

USB microphone at a shockingly low price!
The very flexible gooseneck is also attractive.
It is omni-directional, so if you place it in the middle of your desk, you can collect the voices of several people. Can also be used as a conference microphone.

Classic Pro / Desktop Condenser Microphone with USB connection CDM80U

SSony / ECM-PCV80U

This is Sony's ultra-standard USB microphone, popular with game players on Youtube and NicoNico.
By their very nature, USB microphones connect directly to the PC, eliminating the need for an audio interface. This microphone has long been a favourite as an introductory microphone for video game playback.

The microphone is connected to the supplied USB Audio BOX. The device is equipped with audio outputs (speakers/headphones), so the sound from the microphone can be mixed with the sound played on the PC without delay. It is also suitable for live gaming because there is no delay.

These days, microphones are often used as microphones connected to game consoles for VC (voice chat) and live game play applications to support team play.
It is also compatible with the PlayStation3 and PlayStation4 karaoke software ‘JOYSOUND.TV Plus’, so you can enjoy karaoke at home with key changes, voice changes and nationwide scoring.

■ Get Out of the Beginner's Gym! USB Mic for Improved Sound Quality & Ease of Use
For those who have been captivated by the comfort of a USB microphone, we recommend this microphone.
It can be used not only for Skype calls, but also for a variety of other purposes.

Samson / Go Mic

A super-compact USB microphone measuring just 7 cm.

You can carry it like this.

Connect it to your laptop like this! The fixing clip is useful to have.
It works well with Surface and Windows laptops with full-size USB, so you can keep it in your business bag.

You can also switch the directionality.
Set it to omnidirectional and place the GoMic in the center of your desk and you can take minutes even if several people are talking.
Set it to uni-directional and it picks up only your own voice on a Skype call, making it harder for ambient sounds to blend in.

Classic Pro / RETRO-II USB Microphone

This USB condenser microphone looks like a cool fan and makes a great impact.
It looks rather old-fashioned, but to me it looks rather innovative!

Classic Pro / RETRO-II USB Microphone

It's so high-performance, using it only for Skype calls would be such a waste!
It can also record beautiful sounds of singing and musical instruments, so it is a recommended microphone for those who are streaming online, as well as those who will be doing so in the future.

AKG / Ara High-quality USB Microphone 3-year Warranty

The Ara from the very popular manufacturer AKG delivers 24-bit/96kHz resolution.
It has two microphone capsules and the directivity can be switched between ‘FRONT’ and ‘FRONT&BACK’.
I particularly recommend this set of products.

AKG / Ara USB Microphone + CDA5B Desk Arm Stand

The boom stand is fitted with a clamp to hold it between the desk and the boom stand. The best position for a desktop microphone stand is just over the keyboard, but with this stand you can extend it from the side of the PC desk and float the microphone over your mouth.
This microphone and stand combination is a cool-looking combination!
It will definitely look great on Skype and Discord video calls and facetime streaming.

Rode / NT-USB USB Microphone

USB microphone from RODE, a long-established manufacturer of microphones for recording studios. Condenser microphones pick up subtle sounds, so if you blow on them, they can make a lot of noise. A pop guard is therefore essential, and as you can see, a dedicated pop guard and tabletop stand are included.
This microphone is frequently introduced by Youtubers at home and abroad.

Rode NT-USB The Long-awaited New Microphone is Here!
