Wireless microphone for Cajon and/or precussion?

hello@colinmckay · 7th October 2007, 08:52 PM

Hello,

I play a cajon and I was wondering if it is possible to not be 'chained' to the microphone and the soundhole in one position. I play all sides of the cajon and usually move around on it to accomodate. However, I would like to move the cajon around so I can always face the front of the stage without having to reposition the microphone and stand every time. Is there (or can there be one made/adapted) a wireless unit that either clamps on the cajon itself or even inside it?

Thanks,

Hm...hopefully that doesn't sound like ignoring your question, but maybe just a clamp that attaches the mic to the cajón already helps.
I happen to like this pretty inexpansive one very much - the geometry is just right and it even has a hook for the cable:
"t.bone srm 1" the t.bone SRM1
A little stronger built (actually like a Mack truck) but geometrically not necessarily superior to the t.bone are these two:
"K&M 24030" Km 24030 Mikrofon-Halterung für Drums
and
"K&M 24035" K&M 24035 NICKEL

Then you have a cheap solution and just have the cable getting on your nerves

I don't know so much about wireless clip-on mics, but you might like some of these mics that are for horns. They take high SPL and are small.
