I'm confused now...I purchased a cheap USB mic from Amazon and it was awful and sound quality and level were really low. So invested in a more expensive model USB mic and although quality improved the level was still too low. So I trawled the net to find that USB mics were pretty crap. I have borrowed a Behringer UMC22 with XLR mic input and purchased an AKG dynamic microphone and again audio is level is so low. I have downloaded software such as Voice Box to amplify the level and now we have good level but incredibly noisy at peak. I have adjusted the gain and input levels for a while and just do not seem to be able to get to a point where level for voice is high enough without background noise being a nuisance.
Any ideas where this is going wrong? If I use the mic for Zoom or Skype it is pretty useless. I have all the Win10 controls set up for the UMC but it just will not behave.

edit, sorry see it’s for zoom. Anything but the cheapest/nastiest usb mic should be just fine
