Depending on whether or not your sound card had a mic boost, the volume
might be too low for a shure sm58. You can test that out. You would
definitely need phantom power for a condenser mic, unless you got a
condenser mic that could run on battery as well asphantom power.

Hello Tim,
Wouldn't the volume be too low when recording with a Shure SM58 and
mini jack converter? Also, if I want to use a standard condenser
microphone, I'd need a way of providing phantom power.

Samuel if you have a mic jack on your computer you probablydon't need
a preamp.

Hello everyone,
I am thinking of trying a Shure SM58 with a minijack adapter for
recording myself and my screen reader at the same time. However, I
was wondering, is there a preamp that will connect to the microphone
jack on my computer? I'm concerned about using a USB one, because
if the latency is too noticeable, it will be incredibly
distracting. Thank you in advance.
