I got an usb microphone (superlux e205), and it always records this buzzing noise (attached). Even with noise suppression in OBS it still picks it up when I talk. Is it broken?

That's electronic interference from your computer

Buy a resistor or something to get that noise out, i have one of these for my low impedance earbuds but im sure it works like that in reverse too.

I forgot to mention it's usb, so electric interference can't be a thing. I also tried it on 2 laptops (windows & linux) with nothing plugged it to rule out interference, and it still was there.

i also seem to have the problem for a while but i use a xlr microphone i do think its because of the cable quality maybe

I don't have another usb b cable. Also, the stand uses the cable to prop up the mic, that might be the problem, in which case it will keep breaking, so I'm returning it.

turn mic activation up. mics will always pick up static, especially on loonix

How do I do that? The microphone only has a volume dial. The buzzing was still there on windows.

Its internal then probably if u tried on two pc's, from the noise of it its a bad/loose connection or maybe even a bad capacitor. Unless ur good with soldering i'd check the warranty
My guess is that some retard dropped it during shipping and a wire got a little loose like that

No warranty, I bought it used because I couldn't justify buying a new one for what I do. Now I have to wait for the return to get sorted through.

Is it in a particular program, or system wide? If system wide, in what desktop environment does it exist?

just clean it out in audacity o algo
also if your mic can be toggled between dynamic and condensation mic set it to dynamic

That is an option for recordings, but not for calls
