Headphone or Mic Selection

I am confused between

  1. SENNHEISER E609 Instrument Microphone Super Cardioid | Advanced Shock-Mount Design for 100% Sound Clarity.
  2. Sennheiser Profile USB Microphone for Podcasting, Recording, Streaming & Gaming. Built-in Headphone Output, All Metal housing and Cardioid Condenser Capsule.
  3. Audio-Technica AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Studio XLR Microphone, Ideal for Project/Home Studio Applications.
  4. Blue Snowball iCE Plug 'n Play USB Microphone for Recording, Streaming, Podcasting, Gaming on PC and Mac, with Cardioid Condenser Capsule, Adjustable Desktop Stand and USB Cable - Black.
  5. HyperX DuoCast - RGB USB Condenser Microphone for PC, PS5, PS4, Mac, Gaming, Streaming, Podcasts, Twitch, YouTube, Discord (4P5E2AA).

Are these good choices, please suggest which one should I choose, otherwise suggest other budget friendly high-quality mic or headphone for recording video and other, easily available in India.

    Hi @NehaMalikGoel,

    Thank you so much for your post! I can see how choosing the right mic can be challenging with so many options available 😅.

    Some of our community instructors have had great experiences with the Blue Yeti or Blue Snowball, so I’d recommend taking a closer look at those.

    Then, before you start recording your videos, I also recommend checking out our latest Audio & Visual webinar. It’s packed with valuable information that I’m sure you’ll find helpful!

    If you have any other questions, please let me know.
