    I understand that the PRO44 boundary microphone should be used with a base plate. Your package insert states that a round plate is preferred. However, no dimensions or material type are given. What should I use?

    I wish to mike the feet of flamenco dancers. Is this a suitable microphone?

    I plugged this speaker into a phantom power box. The power box was clearly on, but there was nothing to indicate the mic was on. No sound was amplified around the mic at all. Then I tried to connect a recorder to the mic via the power supply and all I got was a squeaky sound with my voice in the distance. Again, is there something defective with the mic I've got? Shouldn't it at least amplify the sound around it? Shouldn't be able to record that sound when connected to a recorder?

    Does this mic have a switch on the mic for on and off?

    Pat

    No it does not.

    Brent

    Does this require any batteries?

    sharon

    Being a condenser microphone, the PRO44 requires 9-52v of phantom power. http://blog.audio-technica.com/audio-solutions-question-week-phantom-power-need/

    Is there a windscreen (dead cat) you can recommend for this product in outdoor situations?

    Chris

    I have never seen anyone use a windscreen with a boundary mic but that does not mean you can't.

    I'm sure I am not the first Court Stenographer who has asked about this product. We have microphones in our courtroom, but they are not connected to any audio system that records the person speaking. They are only to amplify their voices. There are always too many people speaking at one time and their voices seem to get scrambled and inaudible at times. We are the type of professionals who try to get every word said as spoken. I saw one of these microphones owned by another reporter placed on top of the Judge's podium, but I'm not sure what the quality of audio is. I have a Sony IC digital recorder with a USB port. Am I able to connect this microphone to my recorder? I would just like something that I could move away from where I am seated to get better quality audio from others located away from me in the courtroom. Any help with types of microphones or other devices for my purposes would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    This microphone does not have a USB connection. Check out the AT2020USB+ as this would plug directly into your recorder and give you great sound!
