That`s recording with a mic.
You can use a mic to record sounds around your home, and to record your voice and instruments.
A sampler doesn`t need a mic. It depends from what source you are sampling from.

I`m confused.
I am only new to the production side of things. I know to you it might sound stupid or confusing in this case, I am trying to set a boundary and set myself up with a plan on what I need to produce the way I want to.

You explained it perfectly though in the fact that I want to use it for recording sounds such as mentioned, so if you could recommend me a sampler (software preferably and hardware) and a mic would be appreciated DirtyBass, thanks.
