Re: Good mic for voice?

the samson C01U is a great little mic for the price. i use the non-usb version for extra condensers when i need more than my main one, but we got a usb version at the school i work at and they love it. getting a usb mic means you don't have to worry about preamps/sound card quality etc, but it does mean you are limited in what you can do with it elsewhere (unless it has the option for both usb and normal outputs, which the samson at least does not).

ps. unfortunately mics are one of the mos difficult things to get 'right'. everyone has different opinions, and everyone's voice works better with different mics. i have a friend who we had to record through a shure sm58 rather than the $1500 mic i usually use, because her voice just didn't sound quite right with it. the shure worked perfectly though :)

  You might look into some of the new products that combine a good quality
studio vocal mic, mic preamp, and a/d interface all in one product.
Consult your favorite search engine for 'USB Microphone'.  Samson, Rode,
and Blue are three manufacturers that showed up for me.
   ...of course, then the search begins for working Linux drivers...
