Can this mic be used to record a loud concert?

I don't think you are going to get good recordings of loud concerts with any recorder using this Mic. You would need a more professional device.

My experience is that a loud sound source causes distortion through this mic, at least when used with the Olympus Voice Recorder WS-300M. In a discussion by a room full of people, this mic helps pick up the more distant voices in the room, but near stronger voices are distorted. For a single vocal source, the WS-300M does better with its built in stereo mic.

I haven't tried it in that type of setting. It is great for intimate settings but even then, it has a tendency to pick up everything...cars driving by etc. My guess is that if used at a rock concert, it will grab all the ambient noise from the crowd along with the music.

I have used this mike with a Sony IC stereo voice recorder. It works great! However, even at the highest recording quality, it will not quite match a more professional microphone at the low and high end... however it is totally outstanding for recording voice... and the stereo separation is very good for a combo microphone.

It depends on what you want to record. If the volume is adequete, it will record with no problem. I hope this helps.

I don't see why it would differentiate from its source, as long as the mic is 3.5mm it should work. That said I don't think that it's loud enough to address the average wedding reception venue.

Yes, the clarity is very good for recording. I use this mic for church and it does a wonderful job with the vocals.

It depends on the gig; I've used it live for small clubs (less than 30 people, smallish room) and it works great. It gets surprisingly loud! For a bigger show you would probably be mic'd anyway, at least in my area so it would be fine for that as well. These days, if you show up with a larger amp you probably won't be able to turn it up enough to work the amp at all and it won't sound good anyway.

I am not familer with this unit. if it has phantom power or you have a pre-amp you can use this mic. It is a condenser mic and needs to be powered.

It would be okay but I'd say you should find a music mic for live music... this one is more for open filming.

Yes it would work, however it is important what type of mic you use... a quality mis it the key.

I haven't used the recorder for anything other than for meetings. The quality is good for that but I'm not sure about a loud event. Sorry!

I do not think so. Unless your mic has a USB connection. Even then, I'm not sure how the unit can respond to the mic. If there needs to be amplification for the mic to be heard, etc. I'm assuming the built in amp in the unit will provide some amplification, just not sure if it's enough to drive the mic.......hope this helps.

This microphone will work for that but the quality will not be great. In order to capture the voice loud enough you would have to turn up the sensitivity in your camera which will add in a hissing noise. It will be alot better than the internal mic especially if your using a dslr.

I would imagine it could be but I've never used it for something like that. Condenser mics are less robust than dynamic mics so if you are rough with them they break a lot easier but they do pick up a lot more. So it might be good for choir and instruments but it also might be prone to feeding back since it's more sensitive, you would have to take care with the volume levels. Again I've never used it live so I'm sorry I can't conclusively answer your question.

You won't unless you have a camera or sound board to plug it with, but I'm sure it works. One of the Best Mics there is.

Maybe what you need is a mixer to balance the volume of all the different mics and then record from the mixer. Sorry I can't help you further!

I would think the built in mic on a computer would be good enough for that. Are you speaking of a singing channel? Because then this would be perfect for recording

Yes, the Mic will work fine with that microphone. This is a great little amp for use by a solo artist, i.e, acoustic guitar/vocals for a small venue like a coffee house (like I've done). For bigger venues, you can use the loudbox as a stage monitor, then feed out the back XLR to the main sound board.
