Where do I go to read about microphones?
I recently got a Modmic, and my experience with it so far has been complete garbage. So, in order to avoid doing this again, is there any site for info on microphones?
If that's too retarded of a question, then I'll make it simpler: what's a mic that doesn't suck?

One of the most popular microphones is the blue yeti. I don't use a microphone though, cant tell you if its good or not, but its practically what everyone uses.

no blue yeti, stop meming that shitty blue yeti crap and get an MXL 770.
I'm so glad I didn't fall for the modmic meme.
Anyway someone made this a while ago, op. Blue Snowball is very affordable and very popular if you'll use it for basic shit.

At that point get an AT2020 and get better sound for an extra 30 dollars you poorfag

blue yeti is shit unless you get the pro version and a mixer. it picks up way too much shit and the usb version sounds like ass.
if you're going to spend ~200 just get an AT2020 and a 2nd generation scarlett solo or some other interface like a behringer xenyx 302usb or the focusrite bundle https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01E6T54E2/
also like the other anon said MXL 770 is a solid choice.
also if you're really a jew you can get these two

and that's everything you need for like $60 but you might need an extra xlr cable, I can't remember.

You mean extra 50, anyone who buys Snowball for 70 Ameribucks is a retardo.

Thanks for this. Pretty much on target as to what I was looking for.
Based on what the picture >>55018998 posted, considering I'm in a loud room, I should get a dynamic mic instead, correct? Several of you have posted condenser mics, so I'm confused.
I have a modmic. Sounds great

I assumed from your use of the modmic that you're looking for something for gaming and general voice comms which would make a dynamic mic a pain in the dick because you have to be very close to them. (~3 inches) otherwise you're going to be very quiet

That makes sense. I guess I'll look into the MXL and ATs. Thanks for the help.

depending on how loud the room is and how crafty you are you can try to make https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFVqcEpg6_c but that's less for a loud room and more for one that has echo and such.
