Get an audio interface. Then you can use any microphone.

I use a Shure SM58 for voice and a Shure SM137 for instruments with a Behringer UMC204HD.

I use a Røde NT-2A. What do you mean by “enhancing your voice?” You want a compressor or EQ?

I supposed both; Pulse Effects looks pretty good but was wondering if anyone is using something different!

Saizaku ,

I’d recommend against using pipewire over pulseaudio, and in turn eassyeffects rather than pulseeffects. Pipewire is a much cleaner implementation, way less buggy, has a wider support. As far as I’m aware pretty much every major distro ha smigrated to pipewire aleady.

I personally run my mic into a DAW and process it with effects there. It’s what DAWs are designed to do. I use a DAW output as an audio input for applications. It works great.

Microphones are usually just an analog XLR connector. Good news is most audio interfaces work well in linux because they use standard drivers.

Not sure about studio quality, but for video conferencing and doing some Twitch streams, I’ve being using a Blue Yeti Nano USB microphone for a few years (since COVID) with no issues on Linux.

I use a Audio Technica AT2040 with a Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 audio interface.

Shure SM7B with a dbx 286s preamp going out to a Focusrite Scarlett Solo USB Audio Interface.

UnfortunateShort ,

HyperX Quad Cast. Since it’s USB, it just works. Sound quality is very good for the price, but you can get better ones of course.

Blue Yeti.

Not a street or professional musician, but I wanted something that had great out of the box sound and stereo recording without brealong the budget. I got it on sale.

I don’t know the quality now that Logitech aquired them though. With tons of companies, Logitech drives the quality into hell for profit margins.

I use a Rode NT1 with a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 3rd (!) gen. It's not quite "just works", you need to set up parameters for the USB sound kernel module to get the Scarlett working. Otherwise it "just works".
Be careful with Focusrite products in general and read the Linux kernel project's instructions very carefully on supported products, in case you're interested in such a device (e.g. it's common that 3rd gen works, 2nd or earlier doesn't).

Definitely not a studio quality, but I use Sudotack ST-800 along with noise-suppression-for-voice to get rid of static, key presses, etc.
The price to quality ratio is amazing (obviously the boom arm that comes with it is trash, but again, fine for the price).

My Behringer UMC22 interface works perfectly on Linux, including with pipewire. I use it with a Rode NTG-1 shotgun mic, and it also drives my studio monitors.

My Samson Q2U also works great if you’re looking for a cheap all-in-one option.
