A <strong>cardioid condenser microphone<\/strong> is preferred because it focuses on capturing sound directly in front of the mic while suppressing ambient noise from your room.<\/p>\n<p>Using an <strong>audio interface<\/strong> or a bundle with a mixer allows you to control your voice levels and add sound effects.
