Wireless Mic's in the Primary or Relief Society Rm

#1

Post by TravisGraham »

Hello,
Our Ward Primary President has asked about getting a wireless system for the Primary to use so they can walk around without having to always go up to the stationary mic to talk.
I don't see why a system like this wouldn't work: https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=600061
Any thoughts?

Since FM owns the building and the sound system, you need to make sure that wireless system is on their approved list before purchasing and hooking it up.

I'd think you'd want a handheld, not a lavalier style.

No, they want a lapel mic.

For the teachers? I thought it would be for the kids.

Primary president wants to be able to talk wherever she is and have the kids hear her

I assume using a 'mobile mic' setup with the cable snaking from the wall outlet to the "walking around leader", has been found insufficient? Just pointing out there is an existing intermediate solution between the stationary mic and a true wireless setup. As with all things wireless it's of course so much easier than a cable (especially with kids), but seems at least an interim solution. And it also supports easily sharing the mic with a child so they can participate and have the others hear them.

That is an excellent point. I'll be sure to point this out to them.
