Ross Brand with your Livestream Universe Update for Tuesday, February 19th, 2019.

Our discussion of podcasting microphones tends to focus on either inexpensive USB mics for beginners or those heavier, more expensive studio mics in the $300+ range.

But there are good microphone options available for those who have a mixer, audio interface or recorder…and don’t want to spend over $100 on a microphone.

Mike Murphy works on the support team at Simplecast and sings the praises of the affordable, versatile and durable Shure SM58.

Thanks Mike. You can learn more about Mike Murphy and his gear recommendations at MikeMurphy.co.

Later this week, we will look at another solid option in the same microphone class: the Sennheiser e835.

Updates on Tuesdays and Fridays. For LivestreamUniverse.com, I’m Ross Brand. Have a great day!

The post Shure SM58: A Podcast Microphone That’s Affordable, Versatile and Durable (Update Ep123) appeared first on Livestream Universe.
