Lag1Rich 0 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) TOPIC MOVED Hi all, I currently use windows XP on a HP Pavilion laptop, On the front there is 2 1/4" earphone sockets and 1 1/4" Mic socket, Is there any programs out there that will enable me to plug a mic in which will go straight through to the speakers? Preferably with reverb? Thanks, Richard Edited July 18, 2009 by Dukesy Chalet to let - PM me for details!! see here: www.freewebs.com/eastchalet Link to post Share on other sites
superstardeejay 0 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) it wil go straight through the speakers as it is, you dont need a seperate program. You may need to go into sound properties and enable the mic for recording and playback. In XP you right click on the volume icon next to the clock, select 'open volume control' and make sure 'mic' is un-muted and the fader up. If it doesnt work, click on 'options' and make sure 'advanced properties' is ticked, then go to 'properties' and 'recording' and make sure 'mic' is there as well. If you unplug your mic at any time you may need to untick the mic box as it might use the onboard mic on the laptop and get feedback/squealing. I dont know about reverb though, it isnt built in to windows, but Im sure someone will do a plug in. Edited July 18, 2009 by superstardeejay . Link to post Share on other sites
Dale King 0 Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 It will also sound rubbish, unless you have a very high spec soundcard. You would be far better off getting a cheap or second hand little mixer and running the microphone through that. Many mixers have effects on board, so you could add your reverb there.
