Today’s tip is about microphone control, and how to use one properly! Here are three pointers on how to do it:
1) When singing at a normal volume, hold the mic about the distance of your thumb away from your mouth. When you are singing very quietly try not to move it too much closer or the sound can become distorted or muffled, depending on what kind of a sound system you are singing through.
2) Never hold the bulb of the microphone. If you surround the bulb with your hand and hold it tightly, it muffles the sound and your audience won’t hear you very well. You’ll likely come out sounding muddy.
3) Most importantly, when you are singing loudly, move the mic further away from your mouth. The louder you sing, the further you should move it away. It can become very uncomfortable for the audience to listen to a booming loud singer while they’re wailing at top volume directly into the microphone.
