Hello everyone,
I am looking for a Mic that should be budget oriented (max 300 dollars, better id in the 150-200 dollar range, lower would be considered as well), for mainly voice recording (will be 95% of the time used for streaming and mixing the voice with whatever is on screen playing at the same time).
Id like a Mic that wont be garbage, thats about it.
If a noticeable increase in quality can be obtained by a few bucks more, it will be a plus, but I am not aiming at the best performance/price ratio or the best quality up to X amount of cash.
The mic will be connected to a Laptop/PC, and Id prefer to avoid USB. If I need to get an amp for the mic, id do it, but id rather avoid it if possible.
I was originaly looking at this site: 10 Best Affordable Microphones for the Home Studio - Tuts+ Music & Audio Tutorial
To try to get a feel for Mics.
My first purchase was a trust Starz microphone (took me 3 seconds to put it in the garbage). Then I looked at Behringer C-1U, but it turns out its also USB.
Would something like Rode NT-1A Anniversary Edition be a good choice, or should I climb the ladder a bit higher?
THank you all for your help and comments,
Cats.
