They tend to be problematic. And I have used mainly older PC's.
I prefer the patch cord with the mic and line-in in any event.

But I have a rule dealing with software.
Use cautiously and only when is neccessary.
When I had a USB mic I needed software to run it.
But the conventional method is straight and simple.
Software can be fun, if I had the computer to blow for it.

But I realize that others may demand more with that for what they are looking for.

Even if the USB mics are made better and without the software, I guess in a sense I am a prisoner of nostalgia.
I have worked in public places and have seen live acts.
Still with the original setup mainly.
All those cords sticking out.

Hope you find what you are looking for.
