Wireless Lavalier How do you transfer the audio collected from a lavalier mic onto a computer?
I just purchased a wireless transmitter and reciever of lavalier mic. I want to use it for collecting audio for a video project I am doing, but it says it has to be hooked up to an amp. I have a guitar amp I could use, but how do I collect audio? I want to be able to get clear sounds while I am biking and have the transmitter attached to my beltline....
To "collect" audio, you need a recorder of some sort.
If you are shooting video, use a camcorder with a mic input.
If you are after audio only, you can use an old-fashioned
cassette tape recorder (best: Panasonic) or a new-fashioned
digital voice recorder (several brands; Sony's seem good).

Sangean offers the DAR-101 MP3 recorder, which looks
like it could have a lot of potential at a reasonable price.

The Magic of the Stage Using Theater Lights and Wireless Theater Systems
The theater is a magnificent place to be entertained. If the entertainment is a professional stage production, concert, or a school play theater lights and wireless theater systems are essential to the production of the performing arts.
A lighting designer can position the theater lights as they relate to the stage and scenes. Theater lights will create dramatic effects to any production. There are many different lighting effects used today with the increased technology and using the right theater lights can create any effect.
Spotlights are one of the well-known lighting effects. These theater lights are usually positioned a distance from the stage area. A spotlight can follow a person or can be directed to a certain area of the stage. The attention of the audience will be directed strictly to who or what the spotlight is highlighted on.
Stage lights usually hang from the top of the stage and have many different lights attached. Numerous lighting colors can create many scene changes with the use of these theater lights. In-stage lights are used to highlight areas from below the stage. If an actor would stand over the light their face will be lit from the bottom by the in-stage lights.
All the lighting effects from the dimming systems, controls, fixtures, and other theater lights will illuminate for a quality performance.
To also create a successful performance the sound must be superior. Wireless theater systems are designed to provide quality sound. Sound systems should be easy to install and the quality of the sound should be clear and natural.
There are different types of wireless sound systems and the prices vary. When considering what sound systems will best accommodate the production you should consider the range of operation between stage and audience. Volume control and a durable construction is also a consideration. The systems can be hand held, head worn, lavalier, and body-pack configurations.
The sound system will make the difference between a second-rate to a successful performance. If you cannot clearly hear the voices all the hard work by the performers is futile. Selecting a reliable wireless sound system is essential for a winning production.
