Every time I see people post that they got USB condenser microphones I want to pull my hair out and cry. I get it, you want something that sounds good, is affordable, and is simple to set up. The majority of advice online tells people to get condenser microphones for content creation. But condenser microphones struggle in live environments compared to dynamics, and tend to pick up a wider range of sounds in your space as well as reverberation. You should ideally only be picking up vocals in a tight pattern so that you can easily turn away from the mic to cough or sneeze or whatever without it being just as loud as the rest of your recording, not to mention keyboard or mouse noises.
Dynamic microphones, like the ones you see singers use at concerts, are infinitely better than their condenser brothers for these live environments. At the same retail or online audio stores you're getting your gear, you can find kareokee setups that will sell you something like a Samson Q7/Q8 for $50 to $100. Throw in a PreSonus AudioBox or Focusrite Scarlette Solo (Please don't buy Focusrites, they're overpriced chinese crap and will come shipped to you broken) to get XLR to USB. All your shitty USB microphones already come with an audio interface built into the mic, so every time you buy a USB microphone you're essentially splitting the cost between buying a microphone and an interface for it anyway. So that $100 USB microphone is actually a $50 microphone and a $50 interface. No matter the split, the quality suffers. Bite the bullet and drop the $200 to get a better audio set up.
And no, you don't have to be C**** and drop $800 to $1200 on the best microphone money can buy. (How the fuck was he able to afford that shit?)
>>68844786I know you just posted about your audio set up but please don't let my previous rant get you down. If you just got yourself something new, it sounds good, and it's working for you then that is the most important thing.
>>68846389No. Unless it comes with head or they are a super famous porn artist and you are paying for their recognition, you're getting fucked hard core.
