Hello , to start off , thanks for taking the time to help me!

 

Okay , so now for my question. Im looking for a really good Studio mic for a good price. Il be using it for multiple thing ( Skype calls , youtube videos) no signing or music tho!

 

Anything for a descent price like the Blue Yeti  , Rode NT-USB.  Those are the kind of mics Il be looking for , good audio and that records a good enough base for a voice.

 

Im not looking for the best microphone in the market , not looking to spend 400$ on a microphone! 

 

Thank you for your time , if you have a microphone that you think will do the job just post the name! 

 

PS: If you think the Blue Yeti or NT-USB will do the job , let me know!

USB mic?

are you sure you want cardioid condenser? it will pick up all noise, not just your voice

 

then the AT2020 USB is your best bet

Get the Blue Yeti,  should do fine. heaps of youtubers/gamers use it. Personally I have a BM800 with a DAC supplying phantom power, but without phantom it sounds terrible.

Sloth's the name, audio gear is the game
I'll do my best to lend a hand to anyone with audio questions, studio gear and value for money are my primary focus.

What would be my best option aside from a USB mic?

an XLR mic with an audio interface

which can be much more expensive
