"Best" is open to wide interpretation. How much you can afford or are prepared to spend may well narrow your definition of best.


If you can afford it, the Rode Podcaster <http://www.rode.com/microphones/podcaster>is well worth a look. It is specifically intended for speech and inclusion of the headphone jack is a nice feature.


It is a bit chunky and, I think largely for that reason, my brother didn't like his and sold it before I could make an offer. We have one at work and I quite like it.


There are doubtless less expensive options that will do a good job. My experience is that cheaper USB mikes, especially those built into headsets, produce an unpleasant sibilance but others may have found better examples. Audacity should have no trouble finding any USB mike.

Anyone have ideas of which USB mic I should purchase for podcasting
(to be used in conjunction with Audacity)?
