They aren't too bad. They're used mostly for a drum or amps but a good dynamic mic should work fine for vocal recording, but if you want great vocal recording, you will want to record with a condenser mic

On Scare Tactics why are the marks wearing wireless mics?
The mic is actually always seen clipped on the shirts with a wire attached. ***That does not answer the question. The mark supposedly does not know they are on TV so wearing a clip mic suggests it's all scripted, and the marks are acting. Hence my original question: if it's really a prank why are the marks wearing mics?
Can I run a mixer through my powered mixer for drum mics?
Yes. In fact, I would recommend doing this instead of just running the mics through your band's powered mixer. That way, all your drum sounds (pre-mixed) will fit into just one input on your band's powered mixer. It takes about a minimum of 6 or 7 mics to capture a drum kit properly and that's a hell of a lot of inputs to be using on your band's P.A. Just run the mics through your own mixer, then run your mixer's "Main 1" output to your band's P.A. input. Use a balanced cable. Also, if the mixer that you are using is unpowered, then get yourself a couple powered monitors to run directly off of it so you can have some monitoring without using one of the the P.A. monitors. If your drum mixer IS powered, however, just get yourself some speakers and you've got yourself some monitors. In a nutshell, I recommend getting a small powered mixer for your drum mics (something with 100W minimum) with unpowered monitors running right off of it (use the "Main 2" output). Connect the mixer's "Main 1" output to your band's P.A. system for the final mix. But remember, if you do it like this, you have to dial in a good mix on your drum mics through your own little mixer because the sound guy will only be able to adjust the volume of the drum kit AS A WHOLE through the main P.A. system. This is what I do and it works very well.
What kinds of guitars do killswitch engage use?
Caparison. Check it at http://www.guitarmessenger.com/sites/interviews/12-AdamD/1.HTML on the question "IC: What kinds of guitars, amps, mics, etc. did you use to make the new record?". They are a small Japanese company that handmakes all their guitars.

How well does the AT2020 record vocals?
There's a lot more to recording vocals than just the mic. But assuming you have all other variables in place and of reasonable quality -- preamp, recording medium, engineer (or engineering, if you're doing it yourself) and most importantly a good singer -- you should be able to get a good recording out of it. That said, it would sound just as good (or bad) as most other condenser mics in its price range. I personally would go for the Behringer B1 or if budget permits then the B2-PRO; sure, they're kind of bright, but do really well on vocals, acoustic guitars, and as room mics.
Is the Gemini djm-2 professional dynamic stage microphone a good microphone?
No, it is a cheap microphone and will sound like one. I wouldn't get anything less than a Shure SM-58 for a dynamic stage mic. You can get one new for $100 and used for $50, and they're great mics.
Can you mix condenser mics with directional mics?
Can you mix condenser mics with directional mics using phantom power?
What is the best recording mic?
There is no definitive 'best recording microphone'. Perhaps a more valid question would be what is the best microphone for a particular situation taking into account the sound sources involved, accoustic environment, desired quality of the recorded sound and your budget. Research into the characteristics of the various types of microphones (eg: condenser, dynamic, ribbon etc.) and the various attributes of different mics (eg: polar patterns, frequency response etc) if you haven't already done so and then research opinions and reviews of particular model(s) you may have your eye on to help conclude whether the desired mic(s) are suitable for your needs. For an introduction to microphone technology I think the page below is a good start. It's important to note that although particular mics may be deemed 'good' or 'bad', no one microphone can be considered a 'catch all' solution.
What kind of vocal mic can you use with your HP computer?
Using a sound input that is built into a computer isn't the best solution: An external sound card will normally produce better results but whether you use a built in sound card or an external one, there are two or three ways to connect a microphone. A dynamic mic can connect directly to the 3.5mm microphone input jack. Most of the lower cost mics are dynamic although there are many studio mics available. A condenser mic can be used but they normally need a voltage on the input connector to power them. Condenser mics are normally the preferred choice for recording and they can be used if a "phantom power supply" is connected between the mic and the input. With any microphone, an adaptor may be needed from either a 1/4" jack or an XLR connector to the 3.5mm socket. Many electronics stores will have the right adaptors. An alternative is to use an external mixer. One or more microphones can be connected to it and the output will be at a higher level than a single microphone and is likely to offer a better quality sound capture than using a microphone level into the sound card.

1. Dynamic Microphones: Most used microphones. Common for live mics and for drums as well as other loud sources.2. Condenser Microphones: Popular for recording. They require an external power source that most mixers have built in (Phantom, 48v)3. Ribbon Microphones: Least used. For the studio. Very expensive and fragile. Produces a distinctive sound.
