I am using the Behringer B-1 $99 US.
Phantom Powered Condenser Mic
works great. No Complaints...

I can't recommend anything else because
I haven't used any higher end Mics.

When I finally save up some cash...
I am looking into purchasing a Blue Microphone.
They start at about $500.

If you go to a guitar center there is a rusian mic call OKtava. the model number it 219. it is a 500 dollar mic, but they sell it for 69 dollars. The reason being is cause they are the main distributors of this mic. it looks ruff and crappy, but it is a sick ass, kick ass mic. highly recomended.
i have a friend that uses one. he is a rapper and loves it. he carries it to every studio he goes to.

Well, the cheap condensers are, um, cheap. If you don't yet know what phantom power is, then you probably have a lot more research to do before you know what mic will work best for you the majority of the time. And no, $60 condensers don't compare to $500.00 ones (which, by the way, don't compare to a Neumann, et al.), no matter what the 'retail price.'

I'm definitely not one to say that you have to have expensive shit to get a good sound, though. If you want a tried and true mic that you won't be throwing your money away on (i.e.- something that will still be immensely useful even when you *could* spend more) pick up a Shure SM57. It's used for recording more than any other mic, and works on drums, guitars, vocals, etc.

BUT- remember that the mic pre is more important than the mic. If you're going through a Mackie with an SM57; well, you're just never going to get the sound that you would with a Neve, Great River, Focusrite red, Avalon, etc. You can definitely get a good, workable sound; but for that *premium* sound you're gonna pay 50 times more than you want.

To cut all the bullshit- I'd recommend everyone own an SM57. Or two.

a good mic/mic pre balance and a good mic

I'm sold to Studio project myself (C1 in the house)

Freestyle what will be the use? The evident we can guess?
Are you bass, baryton, tenor, contralto? well certainly not contralto…

have you use some mics already? If so which one and did they sounded ok on your voice or not? Is it for scene or studio? Do you spit?

Panopticon, some cheap condenser would surprise you, really. maybe not the Behringer, but studio projet and SE electronics… mamma mia!
