Today, both wired and wireless microphones are used for recording songs in the studio or for entertainment in a karaoke bar. They have specific benefits that can improve sound quality and other characteristics. So which microphone is better to choose - with or without a wire?
Wired microphones
The wired microphone category includes devices that are commonly used in recording studios, rehearsal rooms, concerts, and karaoke bars. They are called vocal wired devices because their settings represent the human voice as faithfully as possible. The main advantage of such microphones is the reliable transmission of the audio signal through the microphone wire to the sound amplifier, as well as the absence of phantom power.
The microphone was created with the aim of amplifying the power of sound and the ability to record it in special studios.
A wired microphone is a fairly simple speaker-based device that is connected by a conductive wire. In terms of vocals and music, the requirements for any microphones are quite high, since their main task is to accurately reproduce the original sound.
Wired devices are ideal for studio rehearsals where you do not need to move around the perimeter of the hall, leaving the power supply. This category of microphones is divided into dynamic and condenser microphones - the former are relatively inexpensive and have not the best sound quality, while the latter retransmit the clearest sound, but if you choose them, they are quite expensive.
Wireless microphones
Wireless microphones have not been around for too long, but have quickly gained popularity among singers, presenters, spoken artists and other telemedia figures. With the advent of radio models, problems with wires getting tangled underfoot were solved, and head-mounted wireless microphones made life much easier for artists by freeing their hands.
The standard wireless microphone device is a microphone with an internal power supply and a receiver in the form of a small box with an antenna.
Thus, a wireless microphone is a better purchase than a wired device, since it transmits sound waves through a non-contact system, and also allows you to move away from the receiver at a relatively large distance. It is best to give preference to wireless devices with a multi-channel system, which makes it possible to rebuild the device to free frequencies. Also, when choosing such a microphone, you should pay attention to the dimensions and weight of the sound receiver, which should be easy to transport and conveniently located anywhere.
