Questions shoppers ask first

USB or XLR microphone?+

USB for solo simplicity, XLR when you have co-hosts or want room to grow. Hybrid mics like the MV7 do both.

Do I need an audio interface?+

Only for XLR mics. One interface input per in-room host is the rule of thumb.

What cuts room echo cheapest?+

Get close to a dynamic mic, record in a soft-furnished room, and add a rug and curtains before buying foam.
