Its specs

It has (1) USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C 5 Gbps signaling rate (data transfer only) port therefore it has no video out. You can use USB-C hubs but they are not fully compatible.

I need the usb-c hub to connect an external microphone, is that possible? Or else leave a USB port on the PC free, and connect the microphone there and the USB hub, the other potential devices that I need, what do you recommend?

Is is a USB-C microphone ? Have you tried it on existing USB-C port on your machine ?

No, it's a USB Type A microphone, but I have 3 ports on the PC, in the two USB Type A ports, I connect a light in one (I work at night), the other the wireless mouse controller and the USB port remains free. c but you just told me that it is not used to connect a hub (because the hub requires that this port support video output) so I should buy a usb hub with a type A usb connection, so, in a type A usb port I connect the hub usb, and in the usb hub, I connect the microphone, could it be like this?

They are selling 3 ports, 4, 5, 6 or 7 port hubs around, I'm using the following adapter and I've got 2 more USB 3.0 ports
