Tips on correctly using the microphone
Getting good results with a microphone is largely due to proper micro- phone technique. When speaking, hold the microphone directly in front of your mouth. Picture yourself eating a lollipop. The lollipop stick is the “body” of the microphone. This is the proper angle you should be holding the microphone in relation to your mouth.
The distance the microphone is held away from your mouth is largely dependent on how loud you speak. It is common for performers or pre- senters to “eat the mic”. This is term used for someone who keeps the microphone grill in contact with their lips at all times. You will find that if you use the microphone this way, you can speak in a normal voice and be heard clearly. Speaking loudly can cause your voice to distort.
Experiment with what is most comfortable for you. Keep these few items in mind.
-The closer the mic is to your mouth, the louder you will be.
-The closer the mic is to your mouth, the “fuller” your voice will be (this is called “proximity effect” where bass frequencies increase when you move closer to a microphone).
-The closer your mouth is to the microphone, the lower you can set the overall output. This lessens the opportunity for feedback to occur (that awful squealing that occurs when a microphone gets too close to a speaker).
