I ended up investing in a Blue Yeti microphone since my university is transitioning to video conferences for lectures for the foreseeable future. Apparently I wasn't the only one who had that idea since it took about a month for it to ship out. I prefer the sound of condenser microphones to dynamic microphones even though they pick up more background noise.
Blue makes really great entry level/USB stuff too, great choice!
And yes, if you can account for the background noise, a nice condenser is always going to sound warmer and fuller and richer
I'm currently shopping around to upgrade my Audio Technica AT4040 for something a little more high-end, but it's hard to know whether I'm paying more just because of a name, or if it's actually worth it to get some of these.
I saw a video showcasing the AT4040 and it sounds like a great microphone. I've been watching microphone review videos online, and I don't seem to notice much difference past the $500 mark or so. It's probably a limitation of my entry level monitor headphones.
Getting back on topic, I ended up buying a pop filter for my microphone and some acoustic foam panels. Since I'm in a small room sound echoes very easily. I did a recording before and after treating the room and the quality sounds so much better!
