I'm going to look for a preamp for this dynamic microphone or an adapter for the audio cable to USB.
There are multiple XLR-USB adapters with built-in preamps/gain boosters. The AT2005USB comes with an XLR cable so that's the solution. However, some adapters have built-in 48 volt booster power which is apparently required for condenser mics but not dynamic mics (which is what the AT2005USB is; designed for speaking rather than singing). Some dynamic mics are 'balanced' and can handle the +48 volts; some aren't. I don't know whether the mic I have is balanced. So, I contacted a pro audio company through their web site and asked for their recommendations for XLR-USB adapter/preamp that will work with my microphone. I hope they resond today.
