Live vocal effects/using microphones through mic'd amps live
Posted: Mon Nov 08, 2010 4:00 am
Hope this is the right forum for this.....Basically I had the idea today that it would be cool to set a second microphone on my combo organ and make it so that I can switch on tremolo, like in crimson and clover. This mic would only be used as an effect mic, so clarity wouldn't really be an issue....my initial thought would be to use a dynamic mic, xlr->1/4" cable into the tremolo channel of my fender twin or magnatone amp. I'm not keen on using digital vocal pedals or making my setup so complicated, and I really don't feel like having to explain myself to an asshole soundguy in a xhardcorex band t-shirt at the venue. I can fool around with this sort of thing at next practice we have, but would a live application in which the amp that the microphone is plugged into is mic'd itself be an issue?
