When it comes to all the microphone choices what changes is how the voice goes in with the shape affecting it. This is minor though until you get to a higher level being a difference of 3db at their peaks and how much impedance occurs. I tried to keep it lower in price but still stay safe!

Condensers on the other hand is a three way tossup for choice in terms of accessible price with the lowest price being the AT2020 from Audio Technica. The other two big ones are the Rode NT1 and the Shure SM4. 🧵

For Dynamics there is the SM57, SM58 from Shure being your base options. If you want and can spend a bit more there is the MV7X from Shure and the 421 Kompact from Senheisser.

Now on Microphones, there are a few you can go with but make sure you know what type. Dynamics are just plug in and go or there are Condensers which will require you to press the phantom (48v) button.

For interfaces stick to Focusrite Scarletts and the MOTU M series. They are your simplest ones and are the workhorse of home setups. Beyond that is just extra knobs and sliders that aren’t needed as it can be done digitally.

First off, do not buy a USB mic that is over $200 USD. At that price you can get a Focusrite Scarlett for $100 and for another $100 you can get an SM58, the concert microphone we all know. 🧵
