Behringer B-1 Condenser mic suddenly has loud hissing and is very sensitive

[MuffinCrow]

I have had the mic for around a year now and have not had any problems. Last night, I had downloaded and opened a new game and suddenly, my mic became messed up and I am not sure why. Examples of the mic before it broke can be found on my twitch at twitch.tv/muffincrow and the sound now is attached below.

I just need to fix the hissing noise in the background and know why it suddenly got super sensitive. I also need to know if it is fixible on my end or I need to get a new mic. If so, what is a good mic I should get?

I'm guessing that somehow the new game has changed the settings of your mic. Check the Sound Settings for the microphone in your control panel (assuming its Windows).

It's Uno. I am not sure how it would change my mic settings. Also, I've checked and can't find any changes.

There's no way that a piece of software could break a piece of hardware like a mic, especially if you are using an interface between the two. It has to be a software setting somewhere.
