I want to start singin, nothing too expensive. Just something for me to mess around with for a affordable price. Oh, and USB kind of microphone, something that looks like those Karaoke Microphones, if there is one.

You don't need microphones to sing, much less to learn to sing. I've been singing for 9 years and still don't have a microphone lol, if I ever perform I use the stage's mics any how. Trust me, microphones will not help you in any way, unless you are looking to hear a play back of your singing (which I've just used a regular recorder for in the past).

USB mic= fail

... at least get a 1/4th sterro jack

assuming he has an amp. He only wants a 'karaoke machine' type mics lol -- seriously, you can get any cheap mic at radio shack for like 10 bucks, but its really not worth it.... what are you going to do with a mic? if you don't know how to sing, you're going to sound bad either way >.>; worse on a mic actually.

If you plan on getting performance grade mics in the future though, get one with an XLR output thats the only advice I have.

Lol, Something to put into my computer and sing, I wanna know how i sound like when i sing with the instrumentals and everything in the background :]

It really doesn't matter in that case, just grab any random mic from Radio Shack -- USB mic = inherent bad quality lol.

They're only 10 dollars, 20 at most -- you can't really go wrong with your choice.

well even thought you said cheap i will throw the sm58 out there. its 99 dollars but it is essentially industry standard

Ah, I see. Thanks ;] and thanks to aokmaster too for his sm58 mic haha. ill just pitch in with friends and get one decent then haha.

first sensible post in this thread, although the E835 is in my opinion a better mic. the sm58 is ultimately more popular.

Just like any instrument im sure if you hit the store up they will let you try different mics out.
