Buying Microphone(record to computer)

IrishGrimReaper

Hey guys, as I'm learning Guitar I want to record how I sound and maybe someday do a few covers.

I'd like for a mic with good quality like the one he used in that video, budget I can't really say as I'm not sure how far they can go. I guess anywhere from €50-€150. I tried using the built in Mic on my Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 but it crackles on the guitar noise all the time so it's terrible.

Would love to buy off thomann, also would love a stand aswell. And 100% need to be able to connect it to my computer's sound card so I can record directly to the computer somehow. Am willing to buy another attachment if needed.

Sounds card is a Xonar DX .

I use a Samson G Track USB mic. By passes the sound card and connects to a USB port, comes with Cakewalk software. It has two input channels. I’ve been using it for over three years now, no complaints. You can find some music I recorded with it at.

There are three separate tracks on this recording, all recorded with the Samson.

Available from the Music Store for 121 euros

Well within you budget. Comes with its own stand but you really need a proper mic stand for an serious recording.
