Lessons need to be recorded. What microphone should I choose for this?

Question

Iron

In general, you need headphones with a microphone or the microphone itself. What to choose? With a conventional headset, a plug-in sound is obtained from a barrel. Tried to write from 2 different computers. I saw that there are USB sound cards. Are they worth spending money on?

Answer 1

You need a stereo microphone if you want to get high-quality sound, then prices start at $50 and the upper bar is not limited.
You can ask https://twitter.com/iPrizrak on Twitter , this is the host of the AppleInsider podcast, at one time I was tormented by the choice, I think I will recommend it.
Asked the ghost "zoom h4n" uses as a microphone. I remember it by sight, but I couldn't google it :)

Many people have this one, they say it's good.

Answer 3

I'll leave my question here, did anyone use Steelseries siberia v2 for similar purposes?

Answer 4

Depends on the seriousness of intentions and budget.
As a classic, I recommend that you familiarize yourself with

and TiPZ podcasts (Theory and Practice of Sound Recording) in general.
Ahem, the sound is expensive, the more good. Even in expensive headsets, microphones are so-so. The USB microphone is the easiest to use - plug in and talk. Well, almost ;)
As a budget and retail option, you can watch a webcam, something from Logitech for example.
About the Yeti recommended above and other Blue products - due to the non-standard shape, it can be difficult to mount on all sorts of racks / shockmounts.
