Anyone know of a good quality microphone? I'll be using it to record music and such. Provide links if possible.
It really depends on your budget... my first piece of advice is to just go to your local music store and try everything in your budget range and ask questions. Then do some research on the internet..
Hands down, the Shure SM58 or Shure Beta58. $80-$150, depending on how/where you get it.
