This is a professional broadcast microphone and is not meant to be held in your hand.

I bought this for my son. He said it's not wireless, so he does not think you can use it as a mike for interviews. He has it on his desk, on a stand.

no way to large and by handling the mic it will pick up every little sound of your hand against it

This microphone should be fixed on a special tripod or mic stand to avoid noises. Even you need a special mic holder "spider" to avoid noises. Though this microphone is dynamic and less sensitive than condenser microphones, it will still pick up lots of noises if you hold it in hand. (And, as we already said, it is quite heavy)

To ask if you can hold this mic for interviews completely misunderstands the purpose of this mic. It is meant to be mounted somewhere, ideally with a spider, and probably in a studio, and definitely not held in your hand. There are many mics suited to on-the-street use, but this ain't one of them.

cutiek028... I don't see why you couldn't use a hand held microphone as long as the input plug size is no bigger than 14 mm long by 3.4 mm wide. I would have to assume the receptacle is 3.5 mm wide. I viewed the previous answer about the quality of the unit. I, myself, was not looking for high fidelity product. Just something to amplify my voice just a little over my playing the accordion as some of the songs I do sing a little. The bottom line is you get what you pay for - you go cheap, you get cheap. Good luck with your PA application. Sven Engblom.

I am sure you could use this for a microphone if you have a long enough cable. It is sturdy and versatile.

Although it can be done, The manufacturer does not recommend connecting the mic directly. Quite frankly, it's a pretty flimsy and unsubstantial piece of gear. I've moved up to a Focusrite Scarlet. Much much better.

You should be able to do all that, at least that's what they claim. I wouldn't recommend this product . I got 2 headphones and both the mic didn't work.

I have not tried it, but a mic with a mini-USB plug ***might*** provide external microphone capabilities.

It has it's own mic so you won't need the hand held Mic. It's a good headset as well. Hope this helps.

I have a headset with mic, but any handheld mic that fits your computer's input would work. I have not tried it with my laptop's built in mic. It would probably work but I don't know if it would have the same quality as a plug in.

I am not sure I know what you mean by that. I easily RECORD audio material (interviews etc.)that are produced on YouTube and save them in a file on the computer. I have not used it as a personal microphone.

Yes. You can use it for a wired mic. Consider the mic holder to be the exact same one that would be on any stand.

You can hook up any type of mic. Usually a shotgun mic is used for on camera.

I use this as a wireless mic for video recording interviews/podcasts/etc. I recently tried to tie it in with an amp/speaker system for the speaker at an awards banquet and had no luck. To be honest, I had very little time to attempt to figure out a way to make it work. It may be possible. It just didn't work for me in that capacity.

yes you can ,u only need to buy audio jack Headset Splitter Adapter so you can use the mic

No this mic has an xlr (male) connector on the bottom of it. I use it as a talk back mic so that I can talk to the people on the stage while I am sitting at the front of house position (in a pro audio environment). I am guessing you want to use this for karaoke and there are adapters out to make it work for you. http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-Angled-Stereo-Female-Cable/dp/B000068NZG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375893807&sr=8-1&keywords=female+xlr+to+1%2F8 this would work.

You can do that but, you would need to buy an extra memory chip that goes in the back of the mic.

Absolutely. No problem. Use either the provided mics or use the inputs for a preferred mic and you're good. Good luck, have fun.

You might be able. I only use the microphone to record for voice tracks for radio commercials. So I can't definitively say yes or no.
