Can the ADI21 be used with a high impedance mic like the Shure PG-48? I would like to avoid actual tubes because this will be used at gigs.

I don't know why you'd want to use a modeling DI for acoustic guitars with a vocal mic. I'd use something like this DI from Behringer: BEHRINGER ULTRA-DI DI100Or simply get a 2nd, Lo-Z mic for those occasions such as this excellent unit from Behringer: Behringer XM8500 Dynamic Cardioid Vocal MicrophoneI own or have used both of these items with excellent results.

I haven't used it for a mic but it works great for my acoustic guitar. I don't know why it couldn't be used with a mic. You would need to use the low impedance (xlr) input for the best results. I have never used a PG48 so I can't advise on that.

I would say yes. You may want to run some checks as far as dialing in a good sound first. Behringer does have a very fine Mic pre that could be used with that mic to switch imp from high to low with a tube for warmth plus different settings to dial in the perfect sound in the studio or on stage.Tube ultragain mic 200. good price.Just remember in the future if you are moving to stage work you want to most likely be using low impedance mics.They are standard and can be purchased at fairly low prices.

I don't have this amp (yet) but I can tell you that you will need a microphone with a "low Z" or low-impedance cable. The mic input is three prong female so you will need a mic with a low impedance cable which will have a three prong male end to plug into the amp and a female end that connects to the mic. I recommend a Shure SM58 or SM57 for vocals. The instrument input is for a typical "guitar" cable with 1/4 inch male ends. Also, I don't think the 8" speaker in this amp is big enough for bar use unless it's a really small bar and even then the amp would have to be placed at ear level. This is the only amp I've ever seen that has inputs for both vocals and acoustic instrument (low and high impedance) so I'm buying it just for that feature. Just make sure that your acoustic instrument has an output for guitar cable or otherwise you will need 2 mics, one for vocals (SM58) and one for guitar (SM57). I hope that helps. Sam (DOG TOY)

Nope.Tube amps need the speaker load.There are special headphones that have a dummy load so you don't blow up the headset.The Special 6 is a great amp that benefits from an inexpensive Dano EQ pedal if you're using it for guitar.

I would not rely on this mic for a high quality recording, or even a decent recording. Especially not for micing amplifiers or acoustic instruments. Get a cheap MXL condenser mic.

It has a low end driver and their is no workable treb,midBass setting,it says it has but unless you have video combined I see no way of adjusting it for your low end db setting.I would say "NO" dont waste your money save up a extra $100 and buy a harke or if your on a tight budget a fender 40 or 60 watt bass amp will give you better results,you can mic a small amp for small gigs or basement bands.

1. Don't use it like a pedal in front of an amp, it's meant to be used as a DI box into a soundboard. 2. Make sure your on board eq controls on your guitar aren't turned up the whole way, if the volume on your guitars eq is blasted it will distort the effect. 3. If you are using other effects, make sure they aren't overdriving the ADI21. If everything is correct and its still distorting than it may be the effect. I've never had any problems with it distorting at all, it should be a pretty transparent effect just adding some eq to your signal and acting as a DI.

Yes, you could plug a mic into it but you'll need to make sure it has a high-impedance plug. "High Z" mics don't have the best sound around but I'll tell you that if you are looking for an amp for PA system type use, this will probably not be powerful enough. Plus... This amp's speaker has a tendency to distort at high volume levels, even on the clean setting there is some distortion (and it isn't a cool, rockin' distortion - it is an "ouch, my speaker can't handle this" sort of distortion). I do a lot of home recording and I found this amp to be of very little practical use so I returned it. Yes, you could plug a mic into it but you'll need to make sure it has a high-impedance plug.

I have run it with Sennheiser HD 800, Grado PS 1000, and Audeze LCD3. AK 240 plays well with any of them, but Audeze LCD3 is the best. I have used the AK 240 with these three pairs of headphones either as standalone or coupled to my Nuforce 192k DAC. The sound changes, but I would not say that it is degraded by interposing the amp.

Hi there! The 1x12 gets loud enough for small bars, but if there is a house PA, you may just want to mic the cab. I have an ElectroHarmonix 22Caliber power amp, and in a bar sized practice room, I can tune feedback from about 10 feet. Nice!
2057432
Yes! Works great this way. Just be careful of how much input level if you use the mic input. The 1/4" input can be either stereo TRS or mono, but is unbalanced either way.

Hook up yes, will it work, I cant promise anything. It's heavily implied for mic usage so I don't know how it would handle a guitar, I'd suggest checking out their site http://bluemic.com maybe send them an email if you cant find what you're looking for. Blue's really big on mics, I know if they do anything other than that though.

This is a good mic,no doubt, but I would go for a E935 or a Shure Beta 58 for extra high end.

Hi Rick, Yes, you can, however, the other 1/4" input is for pretty high level sources, more like a keyboard. A regular guitar (like my Tele) isn't real loud, fine for practice and really small performance spaces. A guitar with a preamp/gain pedal does better. The tone control affects the 'line' input, not the microphone input. No, the delay/reverb works only on the microphone channel. It really is a cool little box, but remember, it's only about 3 watts a channel! Bill

No it can't,Barbara. The 1/4 input on the amp is for headphones only.Practice amps this small in general do not have the ability to receive a microphone.Performance amps do however have this capability.If however you intend to use specifically for vocals or external "micing" there is an adaptor that a 1/4 inch plug would fit into where the guitar would actually plug into.Hope I could help!!

the phantom power should be sufficient for your condenser mic. I wouldn't count on using this interface for anything more than a demo though.

Hey Shannon! You can use any mic you like with this unit. Peavey makes a mic / stand / clip / cable bundle that we offer for $49. It's a tremendous value! Give us a call and we can arrange a special price for you. 330-546-7076 Thanks!

Be careful, there might be too much 'handling noise'. These mics are designed for a stand and might cause too much handling noise if touched. Call Shure and ask them for advice.
