What would be the best type of microphone to use for recording lyrics for production? And what's the best quality microphone?
Example: There are condenser microphones, dynamic microphones, and crystal microphones? I have heard that the dynamic type are the best for anything... Is this correct?

Most professionals use condenser mics for recording vocals. You should also have a pop filter to prevent the mic from picking up breathing noises. There's a wide range of microphones and prices to consider. You should be able to get a decent one for around $100. Of course you can go cheaper or more expensive depending on how serious you are about recording. You should be able to find a mic that plugs into usb on your computer. A usb mic is nice because you won't have to get other hardware with it such as a preamp or mixer. Hope this helps!
