beginner mic question...

[fibracell]

Hi Everyone,

I just got an elecret condenser clip on mic and tried plugging it directly into my cheap little mixer.

It doesn't seem to work very well - do I need a pre amp or something?

thanks !!

It depends whether the mixer has a built in amp,if not you will need a separate amp.
Is your mic a wireless mic or does it plug straight into the mixer,if its the latter you also need phantom power,if its wireless and uses a battery then it will more than likely have its own phantom power.
