Go to radio shack and by a cheap headset-microphone. You should be able to
get one under 40 bucks. About using headphones for a mike, I did that with
an old tape deck for recording vocals. I had a mixing board and I could e q
the audio so it sounded good. Realistically though, you want to use a real
mike. But some of the big band recordings released back when Decker records
still existed, were recorded on a simple wire recording machine and the
audio was fed in to a guitar piece. It sounded tinny but that was how some
of
the black musicians recorded some of their best works. When you can't afford
the best, you've got to be creative.

Subject: alternatives to a microphone


hi,

well I had a microphone which had a wire teir... No good, I tell you. the
mike has gone dead and now I can't use echo link, except for the "chat"
option.
I can't get a microphone for couple of weeks. My mom tells me that it's my
fault since the chair that i have is a spinning weeled chair and i always
role arround, which case the chair goes on mike wires.

Is there an other way to talk then a microphone? someone told me that if you
connect headphones to a mike jack, it would work. I have tried this however,
but it didn't work.

thanks and 73:
