 What's a decent vocal mic for recording?
What are some suggestions for a good (but not too expensive) vocal mic, for home recording (not live performance)? Thanks.  |

Isn't the SM58 a dynamic mic? My understanding is that condensor mics are better for recording vocals. But maybe you're thinking more about the price. |

How much money are you wanting to spend?

Less than $100, but I'd be willing to buy a decent used mic.

Pretty well any $100 condenser mic will sound similar. I do have a bit of a preference for the studio projects B1.

Studio projects are some of the better Chinese condensers available today. I have a C1 ($199) and it is one of my goto vocal mics.

That's three votes for Studio Projects...sounds like a good mic. This will be the first real microphone I've purchased (my previous one was a super-cheapo computer mic). I have a TonePort Line 6 interface, will the Studio Projects B1 work well with that? Is there anything else, besides the mic and the interface, that you need to record? Thanks for your help. |
