What Microphone To Get?

FinalBullet · June 26, 2015

I am stuck between the Blue yeti vs AT2020/AT2035. Also the RODE mic that Linus reviewed recently. What do you think if a good mic for about $150? If you can include a great arm stand for the mic and other stuff needed for the mic, thanks!

EDIT: Forgot to mention that this will be for youtube.

NEEWER has a decent $13 mic boom arm. And I'd go with the Yeti since it has four patterns.

AT2020/2035 beats the Yeti because the Yeti is so large that it isn't compatible with standard accessories (shock mounts, pop filters, etc). The Rode is of course slightly better, but it is also slightly more expensive.
