I want to put the mic on a stand 12 inches from my mouth. Is this mic sensitive enough? Some cheap mics need to touch my chin before they work.

This mic will work similar to a Shure SM 58. It would be better used closer to your mouth than 12 inches. If you need to have it further away from your mouth, I would suggest using a mic like the CAD GXL 2200.

It mounts on a standard mic stand very easily. That's about the only good feature. Put your money on another brand--- I got two if these pieces of mechanical junk in a row that both fried out mid-gig.

From experience- this would be helpful... however, you can use a "home made" method to silence the dreaded "P's " (pops). I typically turn the Mic sideways towards my mouth and it responds well.

A flat side of the mic should be facing the person being interviewed and the sensitivity must be turned up on the transceiver to the 0 decibel. The mic placement must also be as close to the neck or body as possible. You might also need a feedback eliminator to help with the gain You need.

Yes, this mic is extremely sensitive. I would recommend doing a few test runs prior to the interview as with any mic.

Depends how loud you are talking about, this type of mic has narrow pick up pattern, but if put it too close to the source of noise, it probably will have some minimal effect on it.

Yeah it will, unfortunately, but which proline mic stand do you have? If the pole is thin then yes it will fall over, but if its the thicker like the "proline studio boom mic stand" then no it wont, but you got to work with what you got, put something on the bottom of the stand to make it stay in place. that should do the trick, but if you have money to buy a better mic stand than I would make that choice. But dont always listen to people, if you don't wanna spend the money than dont, i always find a way to make things happen with what I got, be creative :) Best of luck too you

Yes, in principle. I suggest getting a goose-neck extension to add to it in order to make fine adjustments of position. I actually us a Rode scissor-arm mic stand on my desk - they're the ones that have the same spring loaded mechanism that some work or reading lamps use, so it's very easy to rotate it completely out of the way when not in use, and then quickly adjust to the exact position I want for recording. The Posi-Lok arm is better if you can leave it in a fairly fixed position, since it's not as easy to fine-tune it, though, as I say, a goose-neck extension will give you a lot more flex. Hope this is helpful. Yes, in principle. I suggest getting a goose-neck extension to add to it in order to make fine adjustments of position.

Shouldn't be a problem. The shoulder mics out right at 3/8 in. If it is too tight, ease it out with a round file. if it is too loose, shim with metal duct tape.

To me its long enough. I'm not sure the exact footage, maybe 10 feet give or take, but I record in my room and the mic stand is a good three to four feet away from my computer station and it works fine. If you need an extension that's on you.

Yes. I usually keep it on my desk about 3 feet from where I sit, and people tell me fairly often that I have a really high quality mic. It's probably the best microphone I've ever owned. I have to keep it on a small cloth pad to prevent it from picking up the vibrations from my computer through the desk.

I'd use a condenser mic on mine, but there's always a tipping point if the boom is extended too far, true with any boom stand.

I have used this mic for recording interviews and it works very well. I've placed it on a desk or table several feet away and it has no problem picking up the conversation.

Unless you've got a super heavy duty mic stand with a very wide base, there's no way this will stand on the end of any stand that is angled. It's just too heavy. My other problem is that I can't find a stand tall enough to facilitate standing up at this mic. As far as isolation goes, however, this does make a notable difference in my mini "studio". So I guess it's a trade off.

The microphone is very sensitive and will pick up any type of vibration if not totally isolated. You may be able to use it on a table top, but you'll have even more control of unwanted vibrations entering your recording if you use a boom stand with rubber leg tips. Using the stock Yeti stand, my microphone picked up the sound of the computer hard drive vibrations coming through my work table...

I used this with the handheld mic and moved anywhere from 2 to 25 feet from the speaker without any feedback. I do seem to remember a bit of feedback when standing right over the speaker but moving a foot away solved the problem. I have not used it with the mic being 15 to 20 feet from the speaker so I cannot speak to that.
