I am a super noob when it comes to pretty much everything. So I ask people about their opinions on things, when I was asking around what microphone I should get, there was a unanimous vote for this particular one. The specific brand of microphone that I use is called "Blue Yeti". It is professional quality with its four pattern options:
Stereo - is good for singing, ensemble choir, and instruments.
Cardioid - is good for podcasts, voice overs, vocals, and instruments.
Omnidirectional - is good for conference calls, field recordings, and events.
Bidirectional - is good for interviews, instruments, and vocal duets.

Blue Yeti USB Microphone - Blackout Edition
The two that I prefer for streaming is cardiod for when I am streaming alone and bidirectional for when Aaron is in the room and he is sitting across from me. This makes it easier for my viewers on Twitch to hear only me and/or Aaron with less obstructing noises.
Another great feature is the mute button. Its definitely better then just having a webcam mic because I am able to turn off my sound in put if I have to get up for any reason. I honestly have gotten up and said something embarrassing or whatever because I thought I had muted my mic from my computer on OBS. Now I don't have that problem. My Blue Yeti mic has a button on it that flashes when the mic itself is muted. I haven't made any mistakes since I made this purchase.
The only two other things I haven't talked about yet are the Volume and gain nobs. The gain nob is in charge of how much sound is let into the mic and of course the volume is how much sound comes out of the mic into your headphones. . They are self explanatory and convenient to say the least.
In all it was a good purchase and great addition to my stream set up. The quality and professional feel to the mic is outstanding and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a mic.
