Tula Microphone For Online Teaching
Looking for a microphone that is good for recording and for online teaching? In this post discover the Tula Microphone For Online Teaching.
I’m really excited to share the microphone that I am using now currently when I teach online and when I record myself playing the violin. I am beyond excited to have found this microphone it’s called the Tula mic, t-u-l-a. It’s adorable, compact, and portable.
What I love about this microphone is it’s great for voice and also for the violin.
Getting to know the Tula microphone
The Tula microphone is extremely compatible and fits in your backpack super easily so it can go anywhere you go. It can also easily fit in your violin case.
The Tula mic has its own little stand that opens up and then it’s able to sit down very nicely without any issue. You can change out the stand and connect it to a mic stand if you want to. Simply take the stand off with a quarter turn.
On either side of the microphone, you have an on-off button, a record button, the button to choose for the Lavalier mic, and for noise cancellation as you’re recording.
You can order a carrying case specific for the Tula as well; however, I do not have the carrying case as it wasn’t available for international orders. If you are located in the United States, you’ll be able to order the carrying case directly from the Tula website.
Tula is not only a microphone but a recording device as well
The Tula microphone is also a recorder! It records the violin or any musical instrument for that matter very beautifully. It is great to use in your practice sessions as well to playback and hear how you are sounding on the violin.
The one thing is, it does not have a speaker so you’re not able to play yourself back however if you connect headphones to the Tula mic you’ll be able to hear yourself.
Easy connectivity
The Tula microphone is excellent for online teaching. It connects very easily to Zoom, to your iPhone or any device you want to make videos, with a smartphone, or any apps on the iPad or tablet.
The Tula mic comes with a cable that you insert in the back of the microphone and with the other end you easily plug into the USB of the computer that you’re using.
Since I’m using a MacBook Pro I have to have a USB adapter which you can find pictured and linked to the right. You know that it is connected when a notification pops up that the mic has been connected.
Connecting to the iPhone
To connect the Tula microphone with your iPhone you will need a camera adaptor (pictured and linked to the left.) This adaptor connects to the iPhone allowing you to have the USB here for the Tula to be connected.
Now you can use the Tula microphone when you are making videos with your iphone.
How to set up in Zoom
When in Zoom, go into your microphone settings and select the Tula mic. It’s not going to work at first if you don’t select it in settings. You will know the Tula mic is working when you have a red light showing up on the Tula microphone itself.
Easily connects with a Lavalier mic
If you want to connect even further when you’re talking, use a Lavalier mic (pictured and linked to the right) connected through your Tula. There is a hole in the Tula microphone specifically for your Lavalier mic.
Order your Tula microphone
If you’re a musician, I would highly recommend the Tula mic. If you’re an online teacher of an instrument, I would recommend the Tula mic because it’s great for the voice and also for the instrument.
Enjoy using the Tula and let me know in the comments below if you do use a Tula and how you like it.
