Budget-Friendly Setup

Here’s what I recommend to get started:

• Microphone: The Blue Snowball with dual pickup options is a great choice for versatility. Avoid the basic model—it’s not worth the investment.

• Accessories: A silent timer, quality headphones, and a pop filter will round out your setup.

With these basics, you’ll be up and running for approximately $100–$150, depending on current deals. It’s an affordable way to achieve great sound quality without breaking the bank!
