I know the recording of this is crap. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good and fairly reasonable mic that can plug directly into my computer for recording? i'm looking to spend around $150 - 200 here........

so i could just throw a xlr adapter to 1/4 and a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter on that and plug it in directly no problem? hrmmmm nice. i think that may be a better idea than the sm58 cuz it would be more versatile if i want to just mic my guitar..........thanks man!

it doesnt work like that. (im looking into the same thing...not the same mic, but i mic-setup) you can't just get an adapter and just plug it in. you'll need somekind of mic preamp (usb, firewire). this will be more than the mic.

does it lower the quality going through the adapters?
pat, keep me up to date on your findings.
