What is the connection on the mic, XLR? Would I use female XLR on mic end and male XLR on audio interface end?

The mic has a male XLR, so the female end of the XLR cable goes to the mic and the male end goes to the audio interface.

HiRE an audio and Mic jack, I do not think this is the adapter you need. Both the male and female connectors are TRRS. (Tip Ring1 Ring2 Sleeve) It passes stereo and mic signal and is essentially just a 90 for input and output. If you use just a TRS (Tip Ring Sleeve) Stereo In you have only Stereo Out.You can certainly plug it into either a stereo and mic (TRRS) or just stereo (TRS) but output will only be what you put in to it.Hope that helps

Hi Kirk, this microphone uses a 3 pin XLR cable for the connection. If you buy the set it will include one for you. Source- Bought the box set

Both ends have the same connection type, Tip, Ring, Ring, Sleeve, for 4 total connection points. This is compared to a standard headphone/stereo connector which is Tip, Ring, Sleeve, for 3 total connection points. The female end is just the smaller 3/32 and the male is the larger (standard) 1/8 connector. I'm not clear on your question, but if both connecting devices are not TRRS, this will likely not do what you're hoping for. The reason I bought this was to use a set of sport headphones that I liked, but were made for the smaller connector, with an MP3 player.

Had a wrong answer here a minute ago. I own a few mics, and got the details confused. I doesn't come with a cable. You were right that the mic has a male XLR jack. You'd need to buy a female XLR cable. I use a female XLR to male 1/4" cable, and then use a female 1/4" to male XLR adapter for use with my audio interface.

You need a regular mic cable (xlr ends). It connects the output of one into the input of another.

I used this about 2 years ago and from what I remember I needed to connect 2 XLR mics to a stereo camcorder mic input. This is the the not the "correct" way to do this properly. The "proper" solution is more complicated and much more expensive. XLR mics are "Balanced" mics and in theory when used properly they minimize or eliminate the unwanted 60 Hz hum. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Depends what connection cable you have. XLR Female to USB male http://www.amazon.com/Female-Microphone-Cable-Windows-VISTA/dp/B005IU3RMA/ref=pd_sim_MI_8 or 3.3mm mini http://www.amazon.com/GLS-Audio-6-Feet-8-Inch-Stereo/dp/B006LQH2B2/ref=pd_sim_MI_15

Yes, the microphone's cable ends with a MALE XLR. But the cable is somewhat short, you should definitely get a patch cable.

I wish I could help you. I'm using it for voice over one end is connected to the computer, the other side is connected to my mic.

There is an XLR version (connect to computer via audio interface), and a USB version, connect directly to the computer. Based on how you are going to use it, I highly recommend the XLR version. Pick up a Focusrite Scarlet 2i2, a good mike cable and mic stand all for around $300, (new)-- you'll be very happy with the results!

Not so fast on that conclusion... an XLR connection doesn't necessarily mean a balanced mic. It's unlikely that a 600 ohm mic is balanced. It will probably work on a short cable if there's no radio source around. Just because it has three contacts doesn't mean that it's using them all.

Certainly. This is the cable I use. One source will play through both. Bought on amazon.GLS Audio 25 foot Mic Cable Patch Cords - XLR Male to XLR Female

The XLR connection on both mics are male, just as with pretty much every other mic. As far as the threads, that's for attaching the mic clip to the 550. Hope that helps!

This is a standard mic. When buying a cable , buy "xlr mic cable" they're standard unless you need 1/4 inch male to the mixer

Any usb interface with xlr inputs will work. You want to use an xlr cable to connect the mic to the interface. As far as brands go, i use Focusrite but any interface you can afford should do the trick

You can connect it directly. That's how I've always used them. Wouldn't hurt to have an extra XLR to give yourself more space.
