🎧 When choosing a USB microphone for a Mac, PC or iPhone/iPad, it is important to ask yourself:
1. What will you be recording? Music may require a higher end mic with more features compared to podcasts, streaming or spoken word.
2. Will you need to monitor your audio? If so, you will need a microphone with a headphone jack built in
3. What will you be recording to? You can plug in directly with a Mac or PC, but will need a Lightning to USB adapter for an iPhone or iPad
4. What is your budget? USB microphones range from less then $50 to more than $250, so you need to decide on what features are important before you select the best mic for you
