I'm not looking to record music, just use it with a karaoke app on the laptop. Do I still need to buy the cable or does it work cordless?

You must have an XLR male connection (cord or cordless cube) to operate this mic. What you see in the pic is exactly what you get. I use this for voice recording and it works perfectly.

I think I read somewhere, or saw a YouTube vid that explained that plugging a Lavalier mic directly into a PC using the mic jack doesn't produce good results because there is no power. Seems odd that connecting to an iPhone works great, but not a laptop, but that's what the article said. I use the Rhode when recording to my iPhone, and it is superb. For recording to Camtasia I use a USB mic.

It did not come with a cable. It uses a standard xlr microphone cable. It is not a USB Microphone - you would need a separate USB interface.

The microphone is "hands-free" meaning that you don't have to actually hold it. it clips to your shirt. its actually not wireless. so you could definitely still use a laptop to record a service, but you would have to find out how to use this microphone wirelessly or find a really long cord that would be an extension for the microphone cord.

I use mine for Karaoke and I have the sound hooked trough my laptop and then I have a monitor also connected to my laptop. So Yes, you can use it for Karaoke with your laptop.

No. It is a USB connection. Andrea makes a standard model without USB designed to plug into a computer sound card with separate MIC and HEADPHONE mini-jacks, but this won't work on a Panasonic cordless phone.

Hello, I would be glad if I got your question right ,, I'm using M.Adio as an external sound card, it comes with usb cable and cd .. I think if you want to use the mic directly to the laptop by special cable I dont have any idea about it, I apologize and I hope you find what you are looking for soon , greetings

Unfortunately this isn't a cordless or rechargeable unit, it is a USB amplifier, and must be plugged into the computer at all times.

it's keyboard+power cord only, so u need a cable. it's got 1/4" left+right channels out, so, depends on the line-in to your mac mini. mine worked with my laptop when i got 1/4" left+right to stereo mini cable. also you can cheat and use the stereo mini headphone out. pc speakers play fine but they better be decent to great, otherwise you'll get more out of it using headphones. it's a truly dynamic keyboard & sound, just got thru playing mine for the night :)

I bought it for the same purpose and it didn't work... I ended up using for my laptop's softphone. (connect my iPhone handsfree cable to the laptop)

Dear Bernhard,Thanks for your inquiry. You can use a USB cable to stream if you are connecting to an Apple computer or laptop. If it is not Apple, you have the option of connecting through the headphone/speaker output jack of your laptop directly into an amplifier, or using the Bluetooth feature in your laptop and sending the audio signal wirelessly into a Wireless /Bluetooth DAC. Let me know if I can help answer any additional questions!Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

We plugged it into the microphone jack on our computer.Then, you need a program to use the microphone for recording. We used a free program called Audacity.

Hi Fluffy, the cable is NOT a USB....it plugs into a normal MIC jack. I was a little skeptical when I bought it because it was so cheap. but it plugs in and works good and I haven't had any issues with it yet. *crosses fingers*.

It should work just fine. I use mine with a digital voice recorder without a powered jack.

There is no cable with it. I'm a broadcaster. I have it plugged into my portable mixer board with phantom power (also not included). Also, I use it with a stationary mic stand. It is a little too big around to hold comfortably when doing interviews - but the sound quality is very good in a stationary setting.

I know when I used it with GarageBand on my iPad, I had to turn the volume up fairly high and under settings I had to make sure "monitor" was turned on so you can listen as you play. I've also not been able to get it to work without playing AND using the headphones at the same time. I'm not too happy with this cable personally, but I guess it works OK. Hope this helps at least a little bit!
