Wire Mic Cables
I want to start a home studio/place to sing?
Q: Alright, I’ve got a big closet and I was going to use that for my room, I know what microphone I want,
http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/MXL-4000-MultiPattern-FET-Studio-Condenser-Mic?sku=270624
But I have no idea what other things I need for it, like wires or cables etc? Could anyone help me with that?
I’m debating what wires I should get,

Money doesn’t matter, I just want clarity.
A: This is a Phantom Powered microphone. To use it you will need a mixing board that can give it Phantom Power (see this for explanation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantom_power). You will also need to buy XLR Cable because most of the time these mics do not come with cables. I use a mixer much like this one: http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/Alesis-MultiMix-8USB-Mixer-with-USB-and-DSP?sku=630166 You can use a computer to do final mixing, adding effects, and burning discs (this saves a lot of money in equipment). You will, of course, need software. If you are new at this, I recommend PowerTracks Pro Audio (http://www.pgmusic.com/powertracks.htm) It is one of the easiest recording programs to use, and yet it is still very powerful and has lots of effect plug-ins. You may also need a audio to digital converter (depending on how good the soundcard on your computer is). You can try plugging in the mic plug on the computer. If the soundcard isn’t great you may not get a good enough sound. I use an Edirol AU3 — after searching it looks like that’s been replaced by the Edirol Au-4fx (http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.aspx?ObjectId=758&ParentId=114) which also has Phantom Power built into it (so it could do both jobs and you wouldn’t need the other mixer). Hope this helps.
