SonshineLearner Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Hey There, I have a large co-op class with about 20 kids and their moms. My poor teacher needs a mic. Anyone have any ideas? I have a DVD/cd player that has a remote with two mic spots, but I guess that's for Karoake only? I need something around $100... I'd love wireless.... (I'd love to be rich, too....perhaps that's about the same level of chance??) Any Ideas?? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyGirl Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 First, I must admit that I've never seen a dvd player with a mic input. To hook a mic into your dvd player you would have to then hook the dvd player into something with speakers (like the tv) to pump the sound out. Check these little systems out from Musician's Friend. I would guess that the Behringer system is a little better quality than the Nady but the link is broken for the Behringer. I have a job doing sound at a local theatre...let me know if you have any other questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Well.... it's a "Portable DVD Stereo System" ..... GPX..... it has two inputs for the mic.... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyGirl Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Okay, I looked up the system you have and I don't see why it wouldn't just work like a PA. So you could get a wireless mic like this one or if you wanted to spend a little more (and maybe get a little more long term reliability) this one. With the Audio-Technica mic you would need a cord that goes 1/4" to 1/8" to go from the mic receiver into your system. So get an instrument cord then a little adapter Or you could get a really good quality wired mic (Sure SM58) for around a hundred bucks plus the cost of an XLR cable and adapter.

SonshineLearner Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Thanks so much! I'll let you know how it goes! I went with the more "long term reliability" one... and then got the cord and adaptor... didn't know how long of a cord... so go the 5 ft one... hope that works... The teacher has to turn around and write... etc... so I decided the corded one wouldn't be best... ;) If this works... I'll be able to save her voice!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
