mic to XLR mic cable to a USB interface to USB port on your computer.
mic to XLR mic cable to preamp to line in on USB interface to computer.
Both of the above would give you reasonably clean results.
Clean is good if you want to manipuate it in your recording software.
Are you dong any JayZ?
i've never seen so much unnecessary attitude on this forum ever.....
Rutting season!
That is the type of answer i was looking for thankz
Isn't one of the things that ido listed.Would plugging a TRS Connected mic into a........
Have you tried it?
Respectfully I would rather have a answer from some who has compared by doing it
Im asking out of curiosity....What if it was a X-Fi Extreme
Would plugging a TRS Connected mic into a Amp then to Computer have a better sound then a XLR Connected Mic to a Box(ad/converter and preamp) then computer?
The computer uses a internal sound card made especially for recording use.
I did not say plug the TRS into a guitar amp. I said amp, Referring to what you probably know as a "Preamp"

Don't forget that most of the dual XLR/TRS input designs only have phantom on the XLR, and that in most cases mic and instrument pres have different levels of gain available. i.e. the mic input usually offers higher gain potential.
As far as simple line-level connections the XLR and TRS are nominally equivalent.
The OP isn't giving enough info to get a meaningful answer. Obviously plugging a mic straight into a line input isn't going to give enough gain to get to a line-level signal unless you are talking about high-end mics, some of which come pretty damned close with the output off the mics' tube controller interface. The BLUE Bottle Rocket is rated to output +12dBV at 2.5Kohms--- 3.1vRMS! Well above nominal line-level for gear sold in the US. But it also requires phantom power so it needs a powered XLR input.
