Well, the easiest way is to buy a microphone designed for use on a computer.  There are a lot of them available, and they normally start at about $5 and go up.\n\nThese microphones are all low-power condensor type of microphones.  They have about the same quality as the microphones built into a tape recorder.\n\nIf you want to go up a step higher, then you need a bit more equipment.  A Mixer Board (like a DJ uses) lets you plug in higher quality microphones.  They are more complex to get up and running, but if you want high quality, it is the best way to go.  I do this, and have a $250 Shure studio mic hooked up to my computer.

hmm. that's easy. just plug the wires to the green and pink circles at the back of your pc. green for the headphone and pink for the microphone. if it came with a cd then you should install it first.

yes.  they are cheap and easy to find.  Even if your computer has a built-in mic, you'll be happier having one to speak into directly, instead of bending down to yell at your keyboard!

As far as i know i don' tthink you can. you would need a special usb cable and special drivers to do it.

if it is just for practice then put the mic into the clean input or buy a 'splitter' for a few pounds that that allow you to plug both into one input.\nDo not buy a headset mic, by an SN57 or 58 and a cheap stand, as these will be perfect for practice and recording and live work.  you will only have to replace the headset mic as soon as you want to do anything more than sing along in your room

yes, you can use the microphone input on the sound card for the mic, or a USB microphone.  Personally I believe the USB microphones are better.  You get better sound quality and you have a digital connection the entire way.

Audacity is a good choice for this sort of thing -- it's free and works on just about any operating system. You also need a microphone if you don't have one. I'm using the Samson C01U at the moment, but any mic will do. If you are going to send your samples as MP3 files, you'll also need LameLib. Audacity's website provides instructions on how to get LameLib and how to make Audacity talk to it (it's not difficult). Good luck!

I don't think so, it is not that easy, a megaphone (the one you describe) is pretty complete and a lot of them have a very simple and highly integrated design. \n\nwhy on eatrth do you want to connect that to a PC? It would 100 times easier to buy a cheap microphone, and have it on the side if you want to capture the sound, the quality will be as bas as the megaphone thought!

you will need to plug a mic into the back of your PC or get a usb mic. most web cams come with inbuilt mic. go to the help option in audacity to read the tutorials.

Warning, using your microphone through your PC in this style to hear direct through your speakers may cause audible feedback (squeals and loud whistles). You should use a proper amplifier that has a small time delay to avoid feedback. You should only use a PC microphone for recording or Internet telephony as it was intended for. Good Luck!

Yes you can use that headset with your PC. Bluetooth service categorizes under audio devices.

There are alot of possible locations for the mic on a PC, but the first thing you want to check is that it has a microphone currently connected. If you check the back of your computer tower, you should see several audio jacks (they look like the plugs you would plug a set of headphones into) They should be a few different colors, red, blue, and green. The red one is the mic jack, if there is nothing plugged into it, you might need to go buy one. If there is something plugged in, follow the cord and you'll find your AWOL mic.

GO to control Panel and then click on  Sounds, Speech and Audio device. and then speech and plug in your mic and test it.

If you are using Internal Audio, there would be 3 ports at the back ( Sound input and output ports) just below the USB ports. And if its way below like below the AGP card. Then You use a Sound a sound card.\n\nAnyway you will need a Creative Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor to the stuff you wanna do.

Your question is a bit unclear. Despite the fact i'll help you at my level best.\n\nAre you trying to record some digital sound signal from your laptop to the pc or vice versa? \nIf so simply use the sound cards (integrated or PCI i.e Creative Audigy) Line_In and Line_Out ports on them. The computer that receives digital sound signals should be connected with a supported cable to its Line_In, and the computer that transmits should be connected to the Line_Out. But you should remember to initialize your settings in accordance to parameters that would not create unwanted distortion (Noise Hiss..!) i.e use 50 percent volume on the master of your digital mixer and line out/in.\n\nMono Out? \nMono is only single effect on the signal, its really good for speeches but why do you want Mono. You could sometime set certain parameters to receive Mono Signals on your card if it supports such. But it is possible to recieve Digital Stereo signals and then convert them into Mono with software assistance (Nero Wave Editor).  It doesn't take much time to do that as well.\n\nMicrophone!\nYes, thisis required to collect all audio signals from the atmosphere and then route them to the digital path (if using the digital mixers). But if you are utilizing Microphones try good quality microphones that have the appropriate i.e FM mics. \n\nGood Luck!
