Type

There are two main types of microphone: dynamic and condenser. Each has qualities that work well with recording voice tracks. When considering this aspect of your mic section, you really need to think about your recording environment. If you are recording in a professional studio then choosing a condenser is a great choice, as you will have better quality sound. However, if you are not recording in that studio, going with a dynamic will allow you to negate background noise and echo, which will improve your sound quality.

Polar Pattern

A polar pattern is a design that defines how the mic picks up sound. Though like with everything else this a personal preference, most podcasters will suggest you use cardioid pickup pattern. This mic will focus on pricing up the sound from directly in front of it while decreasing the influence of the sounds picked up from the side. There are three types of this polar pattern: cardioid, super-cardioid, and hyper-cardioid.

Connection

Most podcasters will be using a computer as their chosen recording device, so making sure that you have an easy hookup to your equipment is important. There are two main types of connection. You can go with a mic that uses a USB connection (which is the most frequently used by podcasters) or one that goes with an XLR hookup, which uses a port resembling a headphone jack to connect to your audio input source. This is good if you are working in an actual studio and not out of your home studio or office.

Condenser vs. Dynamic vs. Lavalier: What Does it Mean?

These are 3 different types of microphones that handle sound in different ways. Here’s all you need to know, without getting into the nitty gritty:

• If you have a soft voice, go with a condenser like the GoMic or NT-USB. The higher gain and range will add more *umph* to your voice. Condensers are also the best mic for ASMR recordings, as they’ll pick up that airiness in your voice.
  
  
• If there’s a lot of background noises in your studio, go with a dynamic mic like the AT2005. This will reduce sound from unwanted sources, including air vents, refrigerators, neighborhood sounds, children in the house, etc.
  
  
• If you need to move around while you talk, go with a lavalier like the YouMic. This tiny condenser mic clips into your shirt, and can plug into a smartphone, making it much more portable than the other mics.
