Microphone for at home?

My question is which microphone is suitable for at home? I would like to take on myself while singing. I already have a camera (nikon coolpix b500) and for a good sound there's no good, not too expensive (up to 80 euro) microphone that should run on a laptop.

Take the AKG P5, this is a professional vocal microphone, a lot better than its price would suggest.

But you can't save on the interface! Take the Steinberg UR12 or UR22.

I think you're right. The problem is that we're then at around 130 euro…

Maybe you can just tell me what I need to record myself singing at home. But really only what is needed, please.

And thanks for the answers 🙃

Computer, recording program, microphone + MIC8 tripod, interface.

Check out the Music Store's online catalogs for this.

Your problem is the price. For this money you only get a USB microphone. That will be audible and very difficult to adjust. If you are toying with a "studio large-diaphragm condenser microphone", forget it. Are actually useless for home. Look good and is good.

To get started, try the MB 88 from Thomann. Pop filter, tripod and micro clamp! You get that for the price you want. Is one of the more usable USB microphones.

It has good reviews and you can later connect it to a mixer or interface via XLR for better quality

Otherwise, Hörmirzu is right and I'm absolutely of his opinion if the money were there, clamp, tripod and pop filter are also included

Is it possible to use a laptop or does it have to be a PC?

Of course, a clapper is also possible.
