Mic and Interface for under $200 or USB Mic?
Im really new to this stuff, and i really dont know whats needed in a setup for a vocalist. I dont have much money to spend but id like it to last me a reasonable amount of time.
Im thinking of either getting a AKG Perception 120 USB, AT2020 USB mic.
Not really sure about what i would need for a setup that involves an XLR mic. Im not too fussed about having a jack to plug headphones into the mic.. But would probably just be a bonus(not sure)
I actually have a dynamic mic, but i tried plugging it straight into my computer with the supplied XLR to 3/4 Mono adapter cable, but the signal is really weak, and if i amplify it i get alot of noise but just a tiny amount of actual audio (Only like bass hits). Dont know if i need some kind of phantom power source.
Id really like some help. I would like to go for a XLR setup but have no idea how to go about it.
