I use a fifteen dollar radio shack condenser microphone plugged into my laptop. I use compression afterwards and reverb and I get a pretty good sound. I tried my $100 audiotech dynamic mic and it was not as good. I would appreciate users opinions on what type of mic works good plugged into a laptop. i did not see any discussions on this. I am now submitting demo songs made in BB to music publishers via Taxi.

If you plug directly into the laptop then the mic might not make that much difference, as you have witnessed. This assumes, of course, that you are not an audiophile who has golden ears because if you were you wouldn’t be doing it anyway. However if you plug a mic into a really good mic preamp then your choice of mic can be critical, depending on your needs. That is recording a vocal, guitar, drums, piano etc, as they all require different mics.
FWIW – if have only one mic it should be a Shure SM57. This is a work horse that can cover many basis.
Just my thoughts.
