Shure SM7B
The SM7B is still the world’s most popular microphone for podcasting and studio-based content creation, but it’s also an excellent mic for vocal recording.
Being a low-output dynamic microphone, it will need some extra gain before going into your interface. However, this design is ideal for recording at home in untreated acoustic environments because of how localized the pickup pattern is.
The SM7B is a first choice for speech and vocals, but it also works well on brass instruments and amp cabinets.
