Thanks a lot, Ty (and Jordan/Tom)!

It looks like the reason we wanted to do this (to save money) is not going to work, then, because the setup as I had hoped, most likely won’t work.

I’ll still look into the options you all mentioned, for future use. But it looks like I’ll be using standard, wired mics (or buy a receiver for the wireless for use in this application).

Thanks again, guys. As a new guy to the forums, I really really appreciate it! (and your quick response!!!)

I’ve got a related, but not exactly-so question.

I’ve got access to a couple of Shure lav mics with TA4f connections. Do I need the bodypack to use the mics, if I were to get say, a Shure WA310 to convert the mic to XLR female, then a male-to-male XLR coupler, to connect that to my mixer (yes, it has XLR inputs)?

The underlying question here is whether lav mics can be used like any other mic, as far as a wired sense, or is there something other than broadcasting going on in the transmitter body pack.

(Can the mics be used without the bodypack, if the connections are addressed?)
