greetings folks. As the thread suggests, I'm reaching out into the world of audiofile blindies to ask for a recommendation. More spesifically one for a set of reasonably priced stereo microphones that I can clip to a shirt or a hoody or whatever, plug in to the line in jack of a recorder and go. If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know. Thanks
over and out. I stand with the people of Palestine

No ideas from me, I've not delbt with clip-on microphones before. Best of luck in your search, though.

Hi. I am looking for a good mike for podcasting. Something that picks up voice and no background noise, and to sound clean and nice.

Budget? You can find something great for each price range, so it kinda depends on that. I use the Shure SM 58, I think if it's podcasting alone some Rode would surely also do the job. Absolutely watch reviews and demos on YouTube and also consider your room acustic etc.
Also for the Shure you'd also need an arm, sooner or later, + some sort of XLR input, in my case audio interface. But yeah there are well USB C Mics as well so, just something to note and consider.
If I can help further lmk.

Yup I was also going to say ShureSM58, you can always brighten it up with eq or some kind of air mode on your audio interface.

Yup, have some nice preamp on my Focusrite Scarlet 4th Gen 2i2, not that I'd necessarly recommend this interface at this point due to other reasons, but it's an accessible thing.

Why would you not recommend Scarlett 2i2? I have been using it for a while now, and can't complain. Still, I'd like to hear your experiences with it.

I may be blind, but I do not trust blindly, you see? :D

Am also curious, since the focusrite control seems to be accessible with a keyboard already.
Maybe it's a generational thing though, because I have the 3rd one.

Well, this is the first one I bought, and, I am very happy with it. :)
