Hi, I will try to make some vidcasts in near future. I know that first approaches will be hard, but one thing is very important for me. I hate bad audio in vidcasts.
I want to buy condenser microphon. I think it can't be USB microphone because I have firewire camcorder and they have big latency when recording on the PC. Probably I will not do live streams, but I don't wont to fight with av syncing. So I want to connect microphone directly to camcorder.
Unfortunately my camcorder doesn't have XLR inputs (only jack). I was nearly decided for MXL Desktop Recording Kit (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/423740-REG/MXL_DRK_Desktop_Recording_Kit.html) but I herd it has to low gain and that it rapidly consumes battery power.
So I want to buy microphone and pre amp separately. I will record in home "studio", so I prefer AC or USB power (only power, not output) instead of battery.
Now I'm thinking about Bellari MP105 as pre amp. What do You think about it? Can I found something better in similar price? And what microphone do You recommend?
My budget is about $150.

//edit:
My new choice for preamp is: ART Tube MP Project Series Mic Tube Preamp, what do You think about it? Still I need to chose microphone
//edit2: I also thinking about Behringer XENYX 802 mixer instead of preamp. Is it good choice? Has it enough gain?
