Condenser Cable
Condenser Mics for Computer ?
I have a little question.
Would I be able to use any Condenser Mic and connect it to my computer via USB ? I know there's several condenser mics out there that are specifically made with a USB cord...but would it be the same for the regular condenser mics with the mic cable? I was thinking of buying a mic for my computer when I record songs, but I'm really interested in buying the "AT4040 Cardioid Condenser Microphone" but it's made with a mic cable. Would I need to buy a Usb Mic cord ?
A mic puts out an analog signal. It's meant to be connected to an amplifier, and then to a Tape Recorder or public address system or radio transmitter, something like that.
A USB port is a digital port. For a mic to be connected to a USB port requires some electronics, an ADC--analog to digital converter--which converts the analog signal to digital bits and bytes. Mics that plug into USB ports have this built into them. Or you can buy various boxes that you can plug a mic into, and other analog sources, and it plugs into the USB port. Sometimes it is a mixer too.
Google 'USB microphone converter' and you'll see what's available. Also companies like Creative Labs make a number of 'external sound cards' that have connections for speakers, mic and Line Level inputs, and plug into USB. There's an advantage in this, the inside of the computer is electronically very noisy, so you get a cleaner signal if you use an external box (though it's a little more expensive).
