    I highly recommend this setup to everyone:

    Rockband Mic(or any gaming console USB mic)(10-$20)
    A mic stand (10-$15)
    A clip for the mic (4-$6)
    A pop filter (3-$6)

    It's affordable, responsive, and very good for voice actors on a budget.

    I recently got a relatively... expensive $200? mic and a pop-filter....
    I used to use Zeny's suggestion however, minus the pop filter and stand.

    Zeny's right, USB video game mics are great. ^__^ That's what I use and it's easily the best mic I've ever had.

    Mine is a very old, cheap Trust mic, but it works perfectly too~
    (it was 5 euros, so that would be around 10 dollars or something?)

    Hmm, I never thought to use a video game mic. I've got a Guitar Hero mic---do you guys think that would function well?

    However, for now I use...gyuu, I don't remember the exact name, but it's a Logitech headset...thing. xD I originally needed it for voice acting, and the dude at Best Buy said Logitech was probably the best brand. It cost me $27, which I thought was pretty good~ And Komai-chan's voice bank came out great! xD

    I lol'd when I saw you can use a video game mic. It makes sense though, they use usb.

    My microphone... I used to think I didn't have one, and that my computer was just magically recording my voice. It freaked me out. Just today I realized it was my webcam doing the recording, and felt like a total idiot...
    So I guess I use a Logitech Quickcam Orbit MP (I think that's what it's called), and it costs like $130. Shocked Well that's more than I thought it was.
    So I suggest not getting what I have!
