Hello.
Wondering if any of you have any microphone suggestion?
I would like a microphone that is NOT attached to the headset. (Standing microphone)
I would also like it to be a filtered microphone. (Blocks out background sounds , etc..)

Have you got any good suggestions? :bounce:
 
Background noise depends on the recording environment. If you're in a room that's very hallow (no carpet on floors, very big and open area for example), you'll tend to have a reverberation of the vocals due to the ambiance of the room. You can block much of the background noise if you isolate the mic. Example A below. (attached image)

Now you can also limit the amount of background noise by using a vocal gate plugin to silence out the parts where your not speaking. A good free plugin would be floorfish http://www.digitalfishphones.com/main.php?item=2&subItem=5
Just utilize your favorite vocal software (like audacity) and apply this vst to your vocals. It's tedious but there are tutorials online on how to use noise gate plugins.

Now a good mic you have to be more specific, especially when considering the price. Are you looking for something like a condenser mic, a usb mic, a dynamic mic, etc? There are plenty of options you can go through to satisfy your needs.

I don't really care about price.. I'm rich.. xP And I said that as long as it's a standing mic, it's fine. I just need something with good sound. The end.
 
Samson C01U is a great USB condenser microphone. Get that and a pop filter and you'll have great quality audio. Just go on Youtube and search "Samson c01u test" and you should see some demonstrations.
