Any Mic suggestions?

I know everyone here is passionate about headphones. Since Black Friday is coming up, I was hoping to get a mic to cover songs. I was wondering if anyone knows much about microphones. I am pretty much lost on what I should be looking at. Again, not really sure what I'm doing except that I want to sing. :p Thanks for the help!

I don't know a thing about microphones. tongue.gif

 

However, on the nicolive singers that I stalk follow, the really good sounding singers are using some sort of condenser microphone setup. Keep in mind you'll also need some sort of mixer/preamp that can provide phantom power to the mic.

 

My advice would be to check out some profiles of singers to see what gear they use and find something that sounds good while falling within your budget. I know Wotamin uses the bluebird microphone, and she sounds stunning live.

 

Recording technique is also very important, I know some singers with $10 mics that actually sound pretty decent.

 

Good luck ^^.

How do you check the profiles of those nico singers? 

Anyways. Wow those mic  sets are expensive. I've spent 400 on an interface + a mic set

You have to check out their community, and you can usually find the link right under the video title. Some singers who put out videos don't have a community to check out.

 

This is what the community profile looks like, for wotamin. Scroll all the way down to see the profile/gear.
