Microphone for yt?

[Applause]

Hey!

I was wondering what microphone you guys could recommend for a high quality and low pricing. This mic would be used to make yt vids and hopefully record my drums?

Thanks!

This might sound weird but if your gonna be in a quiet room with no one shouting in the background I would recommend this

haha great suggestion

@OP
If you do end up getting that mic I suggest using the mic booster at +30 db.

I am currently using one of those hooked up to my XFi Fatal1ty for all my voice needs (TS, YT, Vlogs etc). I used a studio quality mic while shoutcasting at rAge and the difference was astounding actually.

I am looking to pick up one of these bad guys after reading numerous reviews: http://www.samsontech.com/samson/pro...rophones/c01u/
There is a decent site (soundz.co.za) where a few of my DJ friends have bought from and say all is good. Direct link to Samson @ Soundz: http://www.soundz.co.za/pSAC01UCW/Sa...icrophone.aspx

Partial sound punt, but listen to the voice quality on the Zalman clip on one of my Phatchats: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...y28aegosBq3d_- (post partial editing)
And then listen to the voice quality of the shoutcasts @ rAge: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list...AAxyPE1W25zCSv (raw)

Thanks for the awesome info dude!

I would definitely NOT recommend that Zalman mic for recording drums. It'll end up being a distorted, muddy mess.

What would you use for drum recording? I am looking at getting a dtx750k if i cant find a nice way of recording.

OP,

You're going to struggle to find a mic used for voice and then instruments if you want something cheap.

Drum recording is all down to mic placement, so using one overhead to pickup everything isn't really a viable option but it's definitely better than nothing. You'll lose out on articulation and those little nuances that we drummers love.

Do you have a DAC or mixing desk already? Are you looking for a USB mic? What is your budget?

For the best and most affordable solution, I'd go with a USB mic (provided you have no DAC or other studio gear). Something like the Samson Meteor or the Samson C01UCW.

I agree. Recording drums require you to mic each drum individually and preferably on separate channels to mix in stereo later. The Samson C01UCW is a great mic as it has good all round quality. Some USB mics pick up almost everything in the room so make sure you test it out before you buy.

The better choice out of the 2 I linked would definitely be the Samson C01UCW.

It would be helpful to know what sort of budget OP has.

Thanks for the responses!
