Stand alone mic, -100, if possible

[Lsat0902]

I take all my school classes online in adobe conect, and I often have to use my Macbook because my current Pc does not have a mic, I feel that I cannot keep saying I am a part of the PCMR if I have to depend on my Mac for anything, so I want a mic for my PC. I know I could just use a headphone mic but I want realy high qualty audio, for school and for other projects and I think a stand alone mic would sute me best...........so any suggestions?  Also if you think there is another option better suited to me, please do tell.

 

Thanks,

The AT2020 USB pretty much has what you need if you want good quality and 'plug and play'.

You get a tripod, cable and the mic in the same package.

 

I use the XLR version personally and it's super good for voiceovers and podcasting.

It's one of those mics you get complimented by when using since the sound is so crisp.

 

A step down (but still good) would be the Blue SNowball, you've probably heard of it.

Affordable and is basically an entry level studio mic.

This is by far the best budget microphone, all the youtubers use it and it has very good sound quality for 50 dollars:

Better microphone for 129, the same company:
