microphones?
 

ok i saw a cheap one for 10 $. can i plug it in to my guitar amp and still use the mike while playing guitar

If you buy an adapter you should be able to.

No. You will instantly die. Don't try it.

if your amp has two inputs, yes you will. depending on the microphone you may need one of several cables to get it into your amp.

but this is the standard - xlr3 female -> unbalanced 1/4 inch tip/sleeve

if you want to make your own which is cheaper if you have a soldering iron i can email you a wiring diagram or i post one here

fack!

thanks, but i suck at making stuff. ill just buy one and see how it goes because my amp does have another imput.

any suggestion about any ribbon or condenser microphones for gtr? I'm getting informations about some of them but maybe they are too expencive.... I have a SM57 for gtr but it's too rich of mid/high freq....

thats good advice that.

I'd like him to try it and instantly die.

You're too nice.

Yeah you can. It's better sounding with a mixer though as oppose to a double input amp.

Speaking of cheap mic's, I have two $30.00 mics and one $2.00 mic (dollar store), and I use the dollar store one since the others shock me to shit if my lips touch the mic from the concrete floor

what the fuck? when did i start this topic?

October 7th.

And failed to die. I must be more prudent with my advice.

The answer is here,somewhere.

A microphone, sometimes referred to as a mike or mic (both IPA pronunciation: [maɪk]), is an acoustic to electric transducer that converts sound into an electrical signal.Twat Microphones are used in many applications such as telephones, tape recorders, hearing aids, motion picture production, live and recorded audio engineering, in radio and television broadcasting and in computers for recording voice, VoIP, and furthermore for non-acousticTwat purposes like ultrasonic checking.


If you fail to see it let me know and i'll post it again.

on an electric i wouldn't use a ribbon on condenser. a sennheiser md409 is a good mic for electric guitar and can handle very high spl. for an acoustic you could get away with using a large diapragm condenser like a neuman u87 or u47 but these are very very expensive mics, a rodes nt1a will give you a very nice sound and are great mics for a cheap price, bare in mind that if you use a large diaphragm condenser you will not be able to get much through foldback because you will have not much loop gain. you could use a small diaphragm condeser like an akg ck93 which are nice mics and very very nice on strings like cellos and violins. the 57 you use just needs some eq'ing from the desk end so you need some one with reasonable ears.
