RE: Recording and Audiostuff #2 (+ free Bundle from Cymatics)
Awesome! Thank you :)
question: so the dynamic mic you mentioned costs around 175 eur. I would like to buy a mic that is good for both performing and home recording.
And I would like to buy something that will last me for couple of years. Do you think this is it, or is there a bit cheaper option with similar quality?
Hello!
Something like this bundle from Thomann is a little cheaper and can work well for recording, and definitely for live use as well!

That way you already have a mic stand and a cable :)
It really depends on what you will be using for recording your mic's signal. If you have a Zoom recorder with an XLR input, you can use that, otherwise you may need an audio interface.
There are also some new mics from SE electronics that I'm really interested in that are almost the same price as the shure bundle:

You would have to buy a mic stand and cable separately though.
You may read there are cardioid and super cardioid patterns, I will be explaining all of that on this weeks post ;)
Awesome, I will get the bundle!
oh I did not know I can use my zoom h2n as an audio interface, good to know that, yeey -

It is not ideal in long term , but for the initial fun, that can be great :)
That's a great recorder!, however it doesn't have an XLR input, it has a line input, so the mic you buy won't connect to that input without additional equipment!
