Seng2kSame I ordered 2 got only one and no extra bases I put in my ticket and I'll just wait for them to respond but I mean I wish they would give out coupons, free gear or something so you have incentive to keep buying drops. As for your static what are you playing on PC or console? Because if its PC there are things you need to do to get rid of background noise and static hiss. This applies to all mic's, if you right click on your speaker in the lower right hand corner (notification area) and select recording devices it will open your sound menu. Right click the mic that you are using and select properties, check your gain boost under the Levels Tab, keep it to +10 to +20db (mine is at +20db) higher the gain the more hiss. Under the enhancement tab make sure that sound effects are on, check immediate mode and check Noise Suppression (this will take a lot of the static out) also if you have speakers or loud roommates (me lol) turn on the Acoustic Echo Cancellation, and depending on your mobo you may have DC Offset and other options you can try. Last go to the advanced tab turn down your format your using a boom mic for god sake unless your recording pro audio or your going to podcast (which you better get a real mic and a interface) then 16bit CD quality is fine it will dumb down your voice making your mic a little softer but taking out static and gain. If your on a console then ....... grow up and buy a gaming PC, LOL - Just Kidding, but for real my graphic card cost more than your Xbox One or PS4. If your scared of building a gaming PC hit me up and I'll walk you through it.

MIKSGood point. Let me give this a try. It's connected to my Xonar Essence STX, and I did adjust it by monitoring my voice through ASUS's software, but I'll also take a look at the sound properties.
Do you have CS:GO as well? Perhaps you could give it a try if you did :). Join some competitive server (since this is the only one I tried on so far) and type "voice_loopback 1" in the console and try listening to yourself.
Or if you have any other PC games that are producing clear and crisp recordings of your voice, LMK!

Seng2kOk will do, I'll download cs: go and I'll record a match with shadow play and see how it sounds. As of the moment planetside 2 and team speak sound fine.
