Hello,
I'm having an issue with my microphone. When I'm recording and talking for a while (after a few seconds), there's a kind of background noise like a constant wind blow (style shhhhhhhHHHHHHHH), which is really annoying.
Does anyone know the source of the problem? Thanks

Hello,
This phenomenon is the breath of electronic circuits, referred to as signal-to-noise ratio, which characterizes the level of sound compared to the background noise of preamplifiers and audio converters.
The sensitivity of the microphone contributes to this value, as does its proper adaptation to the mic/line input.
Since computer equipment is not precisely studio quality, in a quiet environment, this hiss can be heard.
There is no miracle solution, besides speaking well into the microphone, without it being in line with the mouth to avoid what are called plosives from pronounced consonants (saturation and distortion of syllables).
A light accompanying music also helps to mask this background noise.
Best regards

That said, the hiss is inevitable and exists on all audio equipment, to a greater or lesser extent.
Without any information about the microphone, the PC used, and especially the recording conditions (background noise, isolation from the environment), it is impossible to provide you with more information.
