Can I use two microphones simultaneously?
If two microphones are used on the same frequency at the same time then they will interfere with each other because the receiver cannot distinguish between different signals and cannot separate them out into separate signals. In a situation like this neither signal will come through correctly.
What happens when you use multiple microphones on one sound source?
Phase becomes a problem when multiple microphones record a single source, and the sound reaches each mic capsule at a slightly different time — the combination of slightly out of time mic signals results in cancellations and reinforcements that change the tonality of the recording.
Why do singers use 2 microphones?
Using two mics for noise cancellation. Combining outputs of both at equal gains, but in opposite polarities, will cancel ambient noise from each to a certain degree.
Can you run two microphones off the same channel?
In music, recording, or conferencing applications, it is not recommended to parallel microphones into a single mixer input.
