Do I need a pre-amp for this to sound decently loud?
I had bought a usb headset and that mic was quit out of the box even with mic volume turned all the way up. Ended up having to apply gain filters to it in OBS.

So how is the loudness of the mic? null

No, this microphone has a preamp built directly into the housing. The microphone actually sounds best with the gain all the way off and raising the volume in your windows settings.

Hi! You can adjust the mic volume setting within the Blue Sherpa companion software. https://www.bluedesigns.com/products/sherpa/ Hope that helps!
