Is there an Omni directional mic available for this system. These don't work very well unless they are spoken directly into..

From the research that I have done these seem to be for solo, performance, personal speaking only. I have not been able to find anything omnidirectionally in the GTD line.

Yeah have a modmic attached to mine. It works well. I have it on the opposite side as the main cable. No these so not come with a mic plug.

I have not had any luck with this company. I purchased 2 headsets with arrached mics and both ceased operating after a few weeks. I then decided to go with the desktop mic and it was supposed to be a usb mic and it was not. I have now gone to a more expensive desktop mic with a different company and it is working perfectly.

No, you can't. The only microphone that is supported by the system is the YPAO microphone for calibrating distances from speakers to the listener in order to provide better sound.

No I dont see any option to connect to extr microphone. However my observatiom it captures voice nicely, albeit disadvantage is surrounding noise also get added :(

No not that I know of. Unless you buy a wireless attachment, but if that's the case, I would recommend just buying a wireless mic.

I use the Audio-Technica ATR-3350 Lavalier Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone. it's cheap (twenty something bucks) and does a good job.

Ya... I bought the Sony ECMCS3 Clip style Omnidirectional Stereo Microphone http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0058MJX4O/ for $27.95, and got the 3.5mm StereoTRRS 4-Pole M to TRS Jack Microphone to iPhone Adapter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DQH8NAS/ for another $20.00... I saved $10 dollars at the end of the day and the quality was much better on the Sony. You can just try any of the other cheap lavalier mics with that adapter above and probably save yourself even more. I'm returning this ASAP...

You have to get a set of headphones that has a built in mic. That is the only way it will work!

Not that I have found. I have used it several times to call my wife and she was able to hear me perfectly well. But then, I did not buy them for the mic.

Generally speaking yes of course. The variables you need to consider are the size of the room and distance from the microphone of each participant. Assuming you use the built in microphone in a reasonably quiet environment, you will pick up voices very clearly from several feet away. If you use a high quality omni directional microphone, you will do even better. It is really designed to work at close distances. But if a small group in a quiet room, it will have almost no trouble. There will certainly be some noticeable variation in volume if some are much far the from the mic, but in the center of a circular table it should be fine. Generally speaking yes of course.

I think you need a uni-directional mic for what you want. This is more a recording mic where sound comes from a single source.

This mic is omnidirectional - it picks up from all sides equally. That means it'll pick up background noise unless you can get the mic close to the talent's throat so that talent's voice is louder than the background noise. This is not a problem with this mic, it's a problem with all omnidirectional lavs. The kicker is this - the mic chord is only 4 feet long, AND the only extensions available for this mic are noisy (Rode has one, but it hasn't gotten to the States yet). Also, unless you are using Rode's recording app, you have no control over the gain of the mic, so using Apple's video app can have overloads if you're not careful, and there's no way to know until after your recording... The mic and its cord sound great (no noise to answer your question), but the 3rd party extensions available suck. I'm waiting to see if Rode's new extension works well. If not, I'll probably sell mine.

What mics are you using.. feedback not only has to do with the speaker position, but mainly with type of mic

Yes, just flip the mic over to the other side. I hope this was helpful. Lisa

You do need to speak directly into the mic, one between speakers will not get the job done. That said with the long goose neck arm we have been able to set a mic in between two speakers and as long as they bring the mic toward themselves it's fine. Hope this helps

I have had units with internal microphones and they are not very good when speaking to someone, you sound like you are in a tunnel or to much road noise. An external mic is the only way to go and the wires can be hidden very easily
