User questions & answers

Question:	does it work on ps
Answer:	I will opt for dynamic microphones for choir church band
Question:	Is there a link for the drivers
Answer:	No, these microphones operate on the UHF wireless spectrum. For example, Shure H10 Band is 542-572 MHz, which is below the 2.4GHz band. Be sure to check on Shure Wireless Frequency Finder page to see which band works best in your geographical area. Here's the link. https://www.shure.com/en-US/support/tools/frequency-finder
Question:	Does this product have a mute button
Answer:	Do you mean a single channel wireless system? The BLX14/CVL? In either case, yes, you will be able to run both systems simultaneously. Each frequency band of the BLX can run numerous transmitters at the same time without interfering with each other. If you also happen to have the BLX14/CVL, you can also purchase the BLX288/PG58 in the same frequency band so that you can have back up transmitters/receivers in case any of them fail.
Question:	Can I press the on board control to mute the mic
Answer:	Shure wireless receivers provide both XLR and 1/4" output for each channel. For the case of the dual channel receiver, you will need 2 cables.

User questions & answers

Question:	can i plug it into a boombox
Answer:	In theory that is all you need, but depending on what kind of recording you want to do you might need more, there are plenty of free open source recording software (DAWs) out there that you could use.
Question:	Does this Microphone have a (1/4" )6.3mm Plug
Answer:	The lo-Z impedance should be fine with most "pro" type video cameras. The output of the SM57-LC might be problematic, most mics for video cams are condenser shot gun mics with better distance pick up. I used two SM-7's plugged into a camera (high end Sony) to record a musical event (plenty of loud audio) and it worked great.. but I'd be concerned about having enough gain for on camera mounting
Question:	Can it be just used as a regular mic? Just plug into the wall sockets and use as a mike on stage and not as a karoke accessorry
Answer:	You can find out here: http://shure.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/122/~/can-you-explain-the-difference-between-a-sm57-and-a-sm57-lc-%3F
Question:	can you plug it into a speaker with a regular aux cord
Answer:	To answer your question, I will use a quote I read in a recording article from DISCMAKERS: "When recording, such as in a home studio, before buying expensive microphones thinking that will make the difference, start with a standard microphone proven over time such as a Shure SM-58 or SM-57. If you can't get your vocals to sound the way you want with those then their is no reason to spend more for a higher priced microphone."The SM-57 & SM-58 are the basis for not only learning good microphone techniques but for also having a road ready microphone that will last a long time. Not having to buy a microphone because you bought a good one to begin with is money saved.Regarding recording, the SM-57 has a slightly broader frequency range so it is great for many instruments from tom toms to flutes and your voice is right their in the middle of those frequencies. Be sure to work the mike while recording. i.e. move in on the quiet places that sound intimate and back up if belting....not too much though or you can sound like you have dropped out of the mix. This moving forwards and backwards may be a matter of inches. But these suggestions are useful for all mikes. A wind screen for plosives can be helpful as well even though these mikes have built in protection for wind noise and pops but in recording it is especially important and noticeable.Have fun recording. It is my favorite musical activity. This mike may be just what makes you sound the way you dream of sounding BUT be ready to try many different mikes. I know of times when we recorded singers with expensive mikes like $4000+ NEUMANN and yet one of the ladies singing found her sound using a mike that was only in the $300 price range. The point is that every voice has a mike that makes them sound the way they want to sound so don't let an inexpensive price deter you from your hunt for the perfect mike for YOU.
