well explained... but iam a beatmaker... and unfortunately iam not too familar with the specifics on the proper mics to cop....
.
.
since your starting out.... there's no need to get best and most expensive mic...
.
all know is that there's two main types of mics.... a condensor mic and a dynamic mic.... one of them would need you to purchase an additional mic preamp..... and the other has what i believe is built in amp called "phantom power"...


and this is assuming that your soundcard has a mic input... if it doesn't then you'll need cop one that does...

sorry for being vague... but thats the most i know about mics.
