Need your help about MICROPHONE

one more question about Shockmount

does it different between two websites?

Personally I would not recommend a USB microphone.  they are difficult to get to work correctly, usually have to be used in MME driver mode and usually have to be used in conjunction with your onboard soundcard which usually causes clock rate mismatch.

I have microphone and soundcard recommendations on my website.

Kasop,

your best bet (and money) is to buy a music interface that has the converters and preamps built in.  In the US, you can find good ones for $100.  That will let you both record good sound and hear it with low latency.  Although the 2020 is a good first mic, a built-in USB convertor won't let you record line level signals or guitars - just the mic.  And it will do nothing for monitoring.  Even if you have to buy a cheaper mic the interface is worth it, in my opinion.

Kasop,

When you get close to the microphone, a pop filter is very useful. This is usually the case for rock and pop vocals.
If you can put the microphone on a piece of heavy furniture using the desktop stand, you may not need a shock mount. The shock mount helps suppress vibrations and noise that propagate through the floor and the stand to the microphone.

As beagle pointed out, a USB mic is not ideal for music recording. You want to listen to what you are recording while you are recording (monitoring). It looks like the microphone you wnat to buy is only an audio input device. This means that another device (soundcard) has to be used for playback. It may work. But I would expect significant latency, i.e. you would hear you own voice through your headphones with a noticeable delay.

Shure makes USB microphones that have a direct monitoring path and an audio output for headphones built into the microphone.
I really don't know how good these are.

Alternatively, you should get an audio interface and the microphone with the standard analog output.

Shure SM58 will work for recording, but it is best for use as a live mic.
LDC is best for recording.
the Audio Technica AT-2020 NON USB is a good choice

but as I explained in my email, if you get the m-audio 2496, you will also need a preamp or a small mixer.

or you can get a USB soundcard like the m-audio fast track MKII and it has a preamp built into it.

Thank you everyone 

Now i'm interested in M-audio Fast Track MK II $120
Audio Technica AT-2020 $100


that beagle advise me.
