If you aint got more than 200 dollars, dont buy anything. That's all i am saying. And when you go to buy one, make sure it is specialised for voice, unless u want it for a certain instrument. Companies and models dont count, the details of every microphone are so small that if you are not a pro you cant understand them.

I have no idea. I use way too high tech stuff for you to afford i guess. Genesis 1000 Final Amplifier, Yamaha MX 12/4 Console, AKAI 4000 DS MkII Tape Recorder, MkII Technics Turntable, Sound Blaster Audigy 16, Casio Casiotone 501 Keyboard. That's all. I can get pics as well.

wow

it all sounds expensive

by **Coccoa** » Jul 21st, '06, 03:48

Right now IF you are lucky you can find em with 3000 dollars. The amplified only costs 1400.

by **MuNxMuN** » Jul 21st, '06, 03:50

unless you're really serious about rapping you really don't need something that costs more than $100

by **mart85** » Jul 21st, '06, 03:54

If you have a hundred bucks to spend on a mic, then buy the Samson C01U USB mic...it's a condensor mic (the type used in studio to record voice...most mics people buy at a low price are dynamic mics, which are used for live performance most of the times) it's a really great mic, and the good thing is you don't need phantom power to use it, since you plug it in your computer through a USB port...condensor mics need phantom power to work (a pre-amp, which costs like 60 bucks for the cheapest ones).... that Samson C01U mic can't be compared to mics worth thousand of dollars used by profesionnal, but it offers a GREAT sound quality, at a quite low price, so yeah, like Harlem said, if you can't afford a good mic, don't buy another one, cause it won't be worth it (unless your mic is a piece of crap and you want a better piece of crap

), you should save your money for something good... here is a link to the Samson mic... you can find it on some american sites at like $70
