Hi,

I recently bought an AT2020 USB Mic, and have this annoying background white noise/hiss. I'm unsure what to do. No matter how quiet the house gets, it's always there.

http://clyp.it/5egxep0g This is a short clip of what I mean. Personally I think it's just due to the USB connection, but I'm unsure how to fix that. I also am using my onboard motherboard (sabertooth x79). If you believe it's due to the sound card, could you recommend me a sound card to get?

Also: http://puu.sh/bWO3J/b04a8af401.jpg this is how my mic is currently placed. It's on a desk mount, so doesn't that eliminate it vibrating because of the desk?

Thanks.
