Note that studio mics recommended in this thread, like the SM57 or the C1, need to be plugged with an XLR cable into an audio interface. Focusrite, for one, makes good USB audio interfaces - but it's still an extra device to buy and then keep on your desk/carry around (and, optionally, to understand).

For conferencing, it's much more convenient to just use a USB mic. I can recommend the RØDE NT-USB for this purpose - all it needs is an available USB-A port.

Most of these are great options but I don't have the will nor interest in buying some new interfacing device to mimic a radio jockey-esque voice over environment.

Just a simple plug and play will do, I actually just searched hard and finally ordered the Rode NT-USB. thank you.
