Does anyone of you possess a microfone for your trumpet? or if you play with a microfone, what kind of mic do you use? |

| they arent really necessary, unless its a very proffesional performance then playing in a regular mic ona stand works just fine | ||

| i played already several times in a stand microfone, but it sucks after a while, because you have to stand still and don´t move or do any stage performance to avoid that your sound and volume changes... ive got the audiotechnica pro clip microfone for brass... its great^^ | ||

very good point. i have a question that has nothing to do with this stuff but i dont want to start and entire thread: is there a difference between growling and flutter tonguing? if there is then what is it? EDIT: i asked my trumpet teacher, he explained to me as growling is a more aggresive flutter toungue kinda from the throat |

| I am pretty sure flutter tonguing is basically just rolling your tongue, but into your mouthpiece (obviously). When you growl, you use your throat, not your tongue. I wouldn't say that growling is a more aggressive form of flutter-tonguing, because they're manipulated completely differently. | ||

right sorry, thats what he said - that it was with your throat, it just sounded to me as a more aggressive form of flutter-tonguing but thanks for the clarification |

back to the thread......i use both a shure sm 57(its quality is great) and a ATM roam elite clip on micro. i play both trumpet and trombone in my ska band so i use the shure for the trombone and the ATM for my trumpet. they both work really good.

| i typically just play a normal mic with my band. it seems to work well for now (i've played with them for about 8 months or so now) but i would really like to get a mic to clip on to my bell. wireless would be great too... | ||

| How much did these mics run you? I've looked into getting a clip on and it was more expensive than I thought it would be, the ones I saw ranged from $110-$200+ Canadian (which I guess is about the same as American right now, and I think it's about $Canadian x2.5= Pounds [I don't have a pound key on my keyboard and I don't feel like finding the Alt+ code right now]) $110 is fine, but I didn't trust the $110 ones at all, and $200 is a little steep for a mic if you ask me (although it is an awesome mic and it would change my life). | ||

| Ok, thanks, I had seen a couple around $600, but I really wasn't sure whether I would be paying for quality or a brand name. | ||

If you're planning to do any playing involving mutes or plunger work then clip mics are obviously not the way to go. I use the Shure SM 57 for live shows and it works beautifully. I picked mine up for around $110 so it's way cheaper than most wireless clip mic systems. If you don't play with any mutes or plungers then clip mics are a good way to go, and if you get a wireless one you can always skank around the stage while playing! skanktrumpet

thats very true........sakanktrumpet...... and I guess you can also give more feeling to your part with the SM57 mic because you have more liberty to move around.......and give a different kind of sound to your notes....you always want to have a good tone.....cheers!!! -trumpetgeek69
