I am new here, and I was just wondering what would be the best usb microphone for micing a kick drum. I am currently using a Samson usb condenser mic overhead to mic the rest of the drumset. I use garageband and am new to recording. Thanks in advance.

Avoid the samson USB, it seems to give problem (ie not working at all) at all.
I'm going to quote one of our french members Djedjjj: QUOTE In the small diaphragm type there's the oktava MK012. russian copy of schoeps , 3 different caps. I've compared with the schoeps cardio and omni on snare and cymbals and the difference is quite small (more bass and medium less tight). Beware of the response though, it can vary so ask the diagrams before buying. Interesting for the price. Or else, in the dynamic mics that are tough : RE20. Else still: KM 184 very very good. There seem to be a squad of die hards KM184 followers
