Will a USB microphone work without an audio interface?

Yes, its converter and preamplifier replace the interface for that microphone signal. An interface is still required later if you need conventional XLR inputs or several sources.

What polar pattern is best for solo streaming?

Cardioid is a common starting point because it emphasises sound from the front and rejects more from the rear. Aim its active side at the mouth because some end-address and side-address designs look similar.

Can I connect a USB mic to a phone or tablet?

Some models work with supported mobile operating systems and the correct USB-C or Lightning adapter, but power and app compatibility vary. Check the microphone device list rather than assuming plug shape is enough.

Why can I hear an echo in my headphones?

The direct monitor and delayed software-monitored signal may both be active. Disable one monitoring path or adjust the microphone monitor mix to avoid hearing two copies.

How should I reduce plosives and room noise?

Place the microphone close at a slight angle, set gain for that distance and add a pop filter where needed. Soft furnishings, closed windows and moving the computer away can reduce unwanted sound before software processing.
