What microphone to get
 
Im currently looking for a half decent microphone which will enable me to put voice overs on videos. I dont need an all singing all dancing thing just something will good sound.

Ive been told to get a condenser mic?

i dont really wanna spend more than £50.

Any thoughts guys?

This is more of a microphone for singing or PA, but will do a great job for voice overs especially in a noisy environment. It sounds great. I'm waiting for mine to be dispatched. Check out the reviews.

Behringer XM8500 Ultravoice

Just noticed that the price has dropped to £15.92, a pound cheaper since I ordered it a couple of days ago.

You'll need to buy a XLR cable if you don't already have one.

A condenser mic requires phantom power to work, the Behringer XM8500 is a dynamic mic which you just plug into your device and away you go.

It's being compared to the Shure SM58 which costs between £80 and £100.





Listen from the 4 minute mark for the test.

I like the look of that ice ball + it has a tripod which is handy just to have it infront of me on the desk.
