As Chris mentioned in the video, we used our Blue Snowball microphone for these lessons. We've since upgraded our microphones and wanted to provide you a few options below. There are still wonderful and affordable options available for great recording on your computer.
GOOD
This is a wonderful and affordable microphone to start with. Even though we've upgraded over the years, this mic served us very well for a long time.
BETTER
It's virtuallly a tie between our Better and Best options... even though this is the most expensive of our recommendations, we still prefer the Audio Technica 2100 as our favorite.
If you tested this microphone against the Audio Technica, you would be hard pressed to find the differences (they are very subtle). This is a great mic with a nice variety of recording options.
Of course, there are a multitude of programs you can use to edit your video. We teach Camtasia because it is the one that works well for our needs. Here are a list of others to check out too ranging from free to more of an investment.
