• B.Check whether the "mic mute" of the online control is open or not. When the "mic mute" is open, the light will turn to red.

User questions & answers

Question:	does it work on ps
Answer:	I will opt for dynamic microphones for choir church band
Question:	Is there a link for the drivers
Answer:	No, these microphones operate on the UHF wireless spectrum. For example, Shure H10 Band is 542-572 MHz, which is below the 2.4GHz band. Be sure to check on Shure Wireless Frequency Finder page to see which band works best in your geographical area. Here's the link. https://www.shure.com/en-US/support/tools/frequency-finder
Question:	Does this product have a mute button
Answer:	Do you mean a single channel wireless system? The BLX14/CVL? In either case, yes, you will be able to run both systems simultaneously. Each frequency band of the BLX can run numerous transmitters at the same time without interfering with each other. If you also happen to have the BLX14/CVL, you can also purchase the BLX288/PG58 in the same frequency band so that you can have back up transmitters/receivers in case any of them fail.
Question:	Can I press the on board control to mute the mic
Answer:	Shure wireless receivers provide both XLR and 1/4" output for each channel. For the case of the dual channel receiver, you will need 2 cables.

User questions & answers

Answer:	yes you can. You will need a Camera Connection Kit but it works great with iPhones and iPads. Check out my video review. https://youtu.be/abP1Ydrql_Y
Question:	Does this work with a usb 3.0 port
Answer:	K670 is our latest USB condenser microphone, which is a new update compared to K669B mic. K669B and K670 are all cardioid pick-up pattern, and they all have on-body volume knob. But K669B hasn't a large diaphragm and 3.5mm headphone jack like K670. A large diaphragm(16mm) will deliver a slightly fuller,round and potentially warmer sound, so this mic is perfect for recording.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this microphone work with my macbook pro that is equipped with high sierra
Answer:	Yes, it can work with a computer that has a USB port.
Question:	Will the volume be loud enough in a room size where 80 people are the max (with my laptop
Answer:	I have used it in rooms with 20 people in an open circle seating and it's picked up fine. It's an Omni pic up so if you out it in the center it will pick up from all directions.
Question:	How does it handle feedback? Specifically does it pick up when peoples voices are coming out of your computer speakers
Answer:	I haven't had that issue, I have tried this in a few different set ups. The cord is long enough that you can place it away from speakers. But even at my desk, without moving anything else, this has worked fine.
Question:	Has anyone tested this mic on Linux
Answer:	Works great-- plugs and plays (I'm using Xubuntu 20.04). Just works. Sound quality is *excellent*. I've had less success on Raspberry PI-- it was scratchy; but I suspect (given the success on Linux) that's due to the PI being under powered. Have also had problems getting it working with Zoom on the PI (works *great* with Zoom on Ubuntu)-- but, again, I suspect that's a Zoom issue, not a mic issue.

Answer:	It has to be in front of you, within 12-14 inches. The advertisement shows it in the middle of a long conference table with people seated/talking 4-6 feet away.
