Hey guys :)

 

I'm looking for a good computer microphone that I can use to record my voice in my videos.

 

I'm currently looking at this one: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dynex-usb-microphone/6084114.p;jsessionid=C12D09678A82D875FB46A20FAC8903F7.bbolsp-app03-200?id=1218719519973&skuId=6084114&st=categoryid$abcat0515041&cp=1&lp=1

 

But I'm not entirely sure on what to get. Any suggestions?

Don't buy a pig in a poke.  Insist on a demonstration.  You might be happier with a head set.

I have that. It's not that good. It has hissing in the background.

Ocram's Razor: Though "more things shouldn't be used than are necessary," they're just too fun to pass up! Expect many verbose arguments from me. I will try to write abstracts before or short summaries after from now on.

Words to live by:
"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit... But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually..." 1 Corinthians 4-11
"Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34
"Do not judge so that you will not be judged. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you." Matthew 7:1-3

    I don't record, so I have no real experience, but I have a Koss headset for sound.  Previous headphones were flimsy and not of the best construction.  Be sure that what you get is rugged, hands free, and mobile.  The headset microphone always keeps the mike at the same distance, so it is easier to use.  A wireless set might be best for you, and you should consider it.
