We are looking to record a service with a laptop via streaming, what is the distance from the laptop this mic will work well?

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.

This type of mic is designed to pick up your voice while being worn on your body. If you're trying to record a church service from the audience or from the back of the sanctuary, I think you will be disappointed with the results.

Hey Kelton! I purchased my mixer about 3 months ago to use for live streaming using a high quality mic.The USB cable I believe within eyeshot is about 6 inches long.

I would say yes, though of the bag of 5 that I received 2 of them had a high noise ratio when recording. I currently use one for voip that I clip to my shirt and it works perfectly on my laptop.

I did a little bit of tweeking on the windows microphone settings and it works on my laptop and It uses a combo headphone/mic jack. Obviously i dont know what you are using, but if you get a splitter that splits the cable to a mic and headphone then it should work

Not sure, I have an Acer laptop. Works great and yes the mic can work either way.

I wish I could help, but so far I've only used it for dictation. On the other hand, Sony's description says it can be used to record lectures, which would imply considerable distance.

Yes it will work, it does have live-streaming capability (although there's some setup involved) and records 360 quite well. I run a laptop as well and as long as it's multi-core and quick, it'll get the job done.

If you use it as an interview microphone, close to the sound source, it should be ok.If you expect to leave it in the middle of the church and be able to hear the priest words, it is not going to work. For that I would suggest use a lavalier mic on the speaker (easier if wireless) and record on the zoom H4N through it's XLR inputs.Good luck

Hi Leslie, I bought the MXL AC 404 mic for virtual training purposes and very happy with its performance. The mic volume level out of the box is set to +7 which adequately picks up hi fidelity voice from 10-15 ft. away. Increasing the volume level even slightly will significantly improve its distance as well. I would highly recommend this mic for the purpose you've stated. I've purchased multiple mics in the past and this mic by far exceeds all of them in performance.

I have the camera mounted outside (weather protected) and connected to a computer that uses a good quality surround speaker system with EQ control for fine audio adjustment. Audio from the camera is reasonably good over an acceptable frequency range. The omni-directional mic is quite sensitive and picks up sounds from more than 150 ft away (as you would want from a Security cam). Conversations at that distance are very intelligible as long as the ambient background noise is not extreme.

I purchased it to use in live streaming and have not used it yet for that purpose. But, I did run some initial tests with it to see how it sounded with and without it. My results were done using my iPod touch 4th generation. Using the Blue Mikey gave my recordings more clarity with less room noise. I still need to test it with loud music playing in the recording since I want to use it for live streaming worship nights with my band. I think this mic would work for you pretty well for the purpose that you mentioned.

It sounds like you want to set up for a pod-cast or streaming show. Or at least a room-ready Skype solution. In any of those cases 6~10ft would be acceptable, but far from ideal. I'd really suggest if you're doing anything even close to professional like that, you go with a Blue Snowball. I have a Gino, and while it serves well for my needs at 2ft, if I was to expand I'd defiantly upgrade. ((Related Snowballs are on amazon sale at the moment, so now's as good a time as any.))

I don't know what that is... But, basically, if your software allows recording from a microphone plugged into your computer's 'line in' or 'microphone' jack and it's a 3.5mm type (the most common), then you should be fine. Keep in mind, though, that the cord is only 3 feet, so if your computer's input jack (mentioned above) is in the back of your computer, then it might not reach.This microphone is mainly useful for camcorder use (Because the built-in microphone on most camcorders do not record sound very well, or, even if they do, they pick up all of the sounds in the room rather than mainly your voice).FH I don't know what that is...

There are several free apps for that; it depends on if you want the Mini-PC to do everything or if you capture on a PC and then playback on the mini. Playback works (OK) but to do the whole thing is tricky, but can be done with a high speed enough connection, USB 2.0 may not cut it.The Mini-PC is not very stable from a wireless point of view it lost the signal many times while I was trying to stream from a local NAS box via wireless. For the current price, I recommend a ROKU for steaming and a custom (software) Rasberry Pi for the capture device.Good luck!

It's not for full range audio, it's a sub link. It only transmits the lower frequencies. This is not intended for streaming.
