Hi all. I have decided to do some vocal recordings at home. As I am looking for a decent USB microphone / recorder that is within my budget, (under $300) I'm just wondering how do these 3 microphones compare to each other in terms of sound quality.
I've read online that the AT2020 and Blue Yeti are very good sounding mics for their price, and pretty similar in sound quality too. However are there any features that clearly differentiates the two? Other than Blue Yeti's numerous capturing patterns.
Also, I am interested about the Zoom (h1,h2n,h4n) since it is also a popular pick. Even though I would love to get these recorders since they can be used literally anywhere, I was wondering if their sound quality is very much different as compared to their USB microphone counterparts? Or the sound quality is roughly the same. And, do the sound quality improve from h1 to h2n to h4n alot? Or they are hardly noticeable.
Appreciate it if anyone who has experience with these mics can provide their inputs. Thanks.![Stick out tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
