Well while we are talking about hardware such as mics, one thing I'm sure of, is that no expensive mic is going to make much of a difference to my voice, and would be money wasted, and my personal opinion is a good singer will come through on a reasonable mic.

OK for commercial cd release the top studios can afford the best, but I think that kind of talk has no place on a forum like this.

I have cheapest of the cheap shure dynamic mics costing less than $30, though some reviews have compared it favourably to more expensive shure mics, such as sm57

$3-400 seems a hell of a lot to spend in my eyes for a mic, and I feel that if someone is only a fair singer (who can pass themselves) then throwing money at a mic may be a waste of time.

Maybe for someone who has experience of a pro studio setup and has seen the best and most expensive hardware, that will colour their thinking and opinions when giving advice to an amateur musician.

The thing that we probably have to remember for most on this forum funds and time are limited.

That is the Reason we are using biab in the first place.
