MIc suggestions

[needmorewood]

guys i wanna mic for Laptop. im thinking USB something like a Blue snowball ($60)
im guessing USB would be better than my crappy onboard soundcard.

i use alot of voice chat and might start streaming so quality would be nice

Anyway it's a good mic for the price

Or get an Neumann (around 2000-3000$) ;-)

No, he uses a professional Shotgun Mic.

Blue snowball is good if you're planning on getting shock mounts and pop filters and swing arms and all that other junk for a "real" mic. Audio-technica also makes a ~$50 USB mic that's similar in quality to Blue: http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATR2500-USB-Cardioid-Condenser-Microphone/dp/B004QJREXM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1383864533&sr=8-3&keywords=audiotechnica+mic

would it really matter between this and the snowball? are they similar?

guys i would get a snowflake unless the snowball is decently better cause i like the way it stands more than the snowflake. makes me feel more awesome (dumb as it sounds

The shotgun mic? It's just a super-directional mic.

I'd save the money and get the snowflake - same quality as the snowball, just not as "upgradable"
