How To Plug ANY Microphone Into Your DJ Controller - Tips & Tricks For Mobile DJs

[@djmickeyTV]

Can I connect a mic to a mic processor then to the mic I put of a DJ controller. This is so I can hear my voice while mixing without having to swap or remove headphone (if connected to an external mixer)

[@donaldsmyth727]

Just say XLR or 1/4" - you're just trying to sound techier than necessary.

[@kevyngreen5038]

A PA System is supplied! What an easy life!! If you want to get the Gig in the UK you better have a Full PA system you can setup in the main room. I'm shocked you dont even have your own Microphone. Surely a wired mic and and the required cable is a gig bag essential!??

[@InfoDJ-Grant]

I have to say, don't depend on other people to supply the equipment you need to perform. A mic and lead take up no room in your DJ gear, take a spare and be prepared.

Thanks bro I was so lost I have a usb dual pre project series and it doesn’t have that connection and my mic has that xlr to trs but my audio interface only supports the regular ones ig the male and female xlr?

Thank you 🙏

Will a condenser mic work without the extra voltage using the TRS XLR combo jack? Thanks👍🏾

[@digitaldjtips]

No they need phantom power

[@djchemics]

Awesome tips Joey

[@Djmarteemcfly]

Ok. A condenser mic that uses phantom power once you power it can you use the output into your dj mixer ?

[@digitaldjtips]

Can't say it's something I've ever done as if I want to use a condenser there is always a better method - what scenario are you doing this in?

[@lala64032]

So I have the party mixer it has no Mike jacks. what's the best way to use microphone ? through a mixer? And how do I connect that.

[@digitaldjtips]

For gigs? An external mixer, hook your controller and microphone to it then send that off to the speakers

[@aldrichalexandre7592]

awesome video thank you. Can I use DDJ 400 with Shure Mv7 ?

[@digitaldjtips]

Yes you can, it's a dynamic microphone so doesn't need phantom power. You'll need an XLR to TRS lead to plug it in - or depending on what you're using the mic for it also can plug in via USB straight to your computer

[@haythamahwal8101]

I use DDj 1000 I think it will only work with dynmaic mic. DDJ 1000 doesn’t provide phantom power. Please correct me if I am wrong!

[@digitaldjtips]

Yes that's correct

Hi have a ddj sr should I plug it in to the controller or what do you recommend I have a wireless and I have a quart one thanks

[@digitaldjtips]

Sure just plug it straight in :)

[@eddierodarte7025]

Digital DJ Tips should I use the court one and plug it straight into the controller or should I plug in the wireless one but the wireless one has a volume on the box and the controller has a volume how do I control the volume which one do I turn off more than the other if that makes sense thanks for answering I look up to you and I look at all your video

[@dj_apocalypse7494]

How can I add a microphone to my Numark Party Mix to do talk overs while streaming on Twitch? I don't think a regular 5 channel audio mixer will do it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[@digitaldjtips]

Get a USB mic and plug straight into your computer

[@dj_apocalypse7494]

@@digitaldjtips easy as apple pie. Just had to get a 3.5 to usb adapter and voila! Thanks.

[@digitaldjtips]

Awesome :)

Hello, I have a Hyper X Quadcast microphone (gaming mic, I know) and it has an output of USB. I am trying to connect it to a Pioneer DDJ-SB3 and the mic input is an unbalanced 1/4 inch. I've been trying to understand how this connects. USB TO UNBALANCED. Your help will be greatly appreciated!

[@digitaldjtips]

It connects to your computer directly Regine, are you using it for streaming?

[@DJGROOVES]

question I have the ddj sb3 but it seems it doesn't support mic input everyone can hear me outside exsternally but if I were to stram and talk through I cant be heard so what can I do in order to get me a mic to work along side my controller?ty

[@digitaldjtips]

You could get an external mixer and hook up your controller and a microphone to it

[@876Abb]

So, I have a confession. I've owned a Denon MC4000 since 2016 I had NO Idea that the mic could actually fit thru the XLR, I thought it was pure solid plastic, ..after watching your video, I said, in my head, "this is BS, I then push my mic thru the XLR and it was a smooth penetration! OMG thank you!

[@digitaldjtips]

Lol glad we could help! :)

[@hhaarmann]

Got to be honest, my first look at connecting the ev-zlx12p's gave me the same confusion. I should have read the manual 😂🤣😅

[@digitaldjtips]

We've all been there ;)

[@TheSaabClinicUK]

Surprised they didnt come out with the usual "Filipino all in 1 Karaoke Mic" !. lol. My wife has one, as do all Filipina's.

[@digitaldjtips]

Hahaha! Possible to bring that out at the end of the night - just hook it up to the LED wall for the lyrics XD

[@thezigs971]

can you plug condensator mic, on ddj 400 ?

[@digitaldjtips]

No

[@raynixv2]

Just saw a film with a “DJ” at a party. What dis he do? He didn’t do ANYTHING! He just said: “Hands up, give it all your voice,” blah, blah ._. does he even know meaning of hotcues... hope he watches Digital DJ Tips soon.

[@digitaldjtips]

[@veselin4504]
