Behringer - TM1

Depending on where you are located these might be in your budget: Large Diaphragm: Lewitt LCT 240 PRO (Condenser) Behringer C3 (Condenser) Behringer B1 (Condenser) AKG P120 (Condenser) SE Electronics DynaCaster DCM 3 (Dynamic) AT 2020 (Condenser) AT 2040 (Dynamic) SE Electronics X1A (Condenser) Behringer TM1 (Condenser) (Rode NT1-A copy) If you can stretch your budget a bit: Rode NT1 (probably the most versatile from the large diaphragm mics i listed) handheld dynamics: SE Electronics V7 beyerdynamic TG V50 Sennheiser E835 considering that you will need a pop filter a mic stand and maybe a shock mount (if not owned already) those mic that come with these things might be the best choice. They should all be more than sufficient at recording vocals. One thing to consider is that some are brighter and might not fit all voices as well but this can be mitigated with pop filters or wind screens. I personally prefer large diapgragm microphones for studio.

At your stage, it doesn't matter. A dynamic will generally be more durable, but a condenser will generally provide a more detailed response. A condenser will need 48v phantom power from an audio interface or preamp. A dynamic will function as a hammer in case of emergency. My recommendation, and I will be hammered for this, is buy both. Get a Behringer large diaphragm condensor and their SM58 clone. You'll have enough left over from the price of a 58 to buy a cheap stand, and those mics will serve you well forever if you look after them. As you learn your craft and preferences, you'll be well informed when you buy your first premium mic.
