    The answer is a definite maybe. There are some transmitters that will accept the input from a wired mic, but it gets a bit complicated. In general terms, a wired mic and a wireless mic are two different things that won't work together.

    Since you say you're a novice, I'm going to assume you're trying to save some money by cobbling gear together. In all honesty, that usually ends up costing more than you would have spent just buying wireless gear. The FCC changed the rules about wireless microphones a couple of years ago and the market is now full of useless equipment. Unless you really know what you're doing or have a friend to help you every step of the way, I'd avoid the problem and just get the right gear for the job. I know that's not what you wanted to hear, but that's how it is.

    i think of of your question is, am i waiting to have distinctive mics on the comparable channel and the receiver %. up all of them up on the comparable time as a mix? that answer isn't any. with the aid of "grab consequence" of FM, the receiver will in simple phrases %. up one mic at a time and forget approximately others which could be on channel. the mic with the main effectual RF reception wins, no longer the only with the loudest talker. with the aid of certainty grab consequence is risky, with the aid of certainty the guy strikes around propagation ameliorations and the receiver could substitute to a distinctive temporarily more desirable mic.
