Hi, maybe you can help me with some tech suggestions. At my local scouts troop I’m one of only a few guitar players. At camp fires I play the guitar and provide lead vocals, so that others can follow (which is important especially for songs, that are not well known). Because only a few can sit directly beside me and others might talk in parallel, I need to sing very loud, to give an orientation, which makes me hoarse way faster.
I would like to have something, that amplifies my voice, with decent quality (so no megaphone), a microphone fixed to my clothes or my head (as I need to play the guitar in parallel) and being portable (easy to carry, relatively small and powered via battery). I am able to spend like 200€ for it (300€ would be the hard upper limit). I can also build something myself, though I would need orientation on what to build exactly. I don’t have experience with audio electronics, but with microcontrollers.
Thanks in advance for your help!
An app to turn your phone into a Bluetooth microphone.
And a construction workers’ radio like this https://amzn.eu/d/hZ8EuTH
or one of these typical jbl boomboxes.
Do you know, how the latency is for that typically? Any noticeable delay would create problems with the normally transmitted voice.
Just tried a few out and yes, the latency is very noticeable. I wouldn’t be able to sing with it.
Thanks for trying it out. Thought, that this might be a problem
I don’t know. But some phones and most of these boomboxes can also work with a cable.
