Here's the thing; all microphones can be used. The problem is that there are some mics that are right for certain situations and some are just not good at such settings. Also, some just aren't any good at any pro-recording situation such as gaming or phone transmission. This means that if you want to buy a microphone for your studio, you have your work cut out for you, especially if you are a newbie. Otherwise, you run the risk of purchasing one that you do not need at all.

You may understand microphone specifications, but you may still in the dark as to what makes a good recording device. This is understandable because it takes years of sonic experience (which means buying a variety of home recording equipment and trying them out and actually recording music through those) to find out what makes a good mic. Luckily, there are comparison shopping sites out there that would spare you from having to purchase a multitude of recording devices. All you need to do is find out what to look at.

Sound and Application

You'll want a recording mic that captures the true sounds of what it is built for really well. For starters, you may check out the frequency graph to find out which sounds it is optimized for. You may also look at some user reviews and find out if there are problems when it comes to clarity and directionality. And also of course, durability.

Features

Mics will of course come with the mandatory features - but are there extra features that totally use. Some have a bass roll-off feature - a switch that mitigates the lower bass frequencies in the setting that your device may pick up. Some pros do not think this is a deal-maker however, as there are mixers with such switches on preamps already; still, many do like to have this feature on the actual microphone. There are also some mic packages come with accessories like shock mounts and mic bags.

Design and Quality

You will be using the mic for recording but it wouldn't hurt if it doesn't look bad, right? More importantly, the mic should also be well-built. Your mic will not exactly face war but you would not want to end up with a mic that you only get to use once as the sound quality was compromised after you knocked it off a coffee table (although one would wonder how clumsy they could be).

Ease of Use

Using a microphone - even a professional type -- is not really for brainiacs only but it can be a challenge for beginners. There are, however, mics that anyone can easily "plug and play with" and should there be problems, there should at least be good product support.

A Good Buy?

Let's face it; these things never come cheap. The good news is that they aren't as expensive as they were decades ago. These days, you can easily find good mics in the $99 to $199 price range. Now, the real challenge is to find a mic that has way more than what you are expecting to get in its price range.

In Summary

Note that your decision would always depend on the situations the mic would be used for. More importantly, while it is a good idea assess sound quality, design, features, ease of use and support, the best choice is whether you will be getting your money's worth - or more.
