[QUOTE="Micron, post: 871963, member: 17294"] You're welcome. I haven't used many of the standalone units, but I think there are smaller ones too. The computer based system makes it easier to import backtracks and manage a lot of "sessions" - for instance a new session or project file for each song. You could also add effects, delay and reverb for instance, to her voice and tweak it quite easily. The SM58 is the industry standard handheld vocal microphone for live sound reinforcement. It is virtually indestructible (it will not break from her dropping it; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95U7wxPQZdE&frags=pl%2Cwn) and though you could get better recorded sound from a more expensive condenser microphone the SM58 will sound good enough for the intended purpose and it will have better feedback rejection so if you manage the gain on the microphone pre amp she could have the loudspeakers quite loud, with the music and her voice coming out of the loudspeakers, while singing along and you wouldn't have feedback issues. Even though you want to record I would recommend the use of a hand held live sound vocal mic. This would also enable her to dance and perform while holding the microphone whereas most condenser mics needs to be stationary in a shock mount on a stand. The other benefit of the equipment that I recommended is that you could very easily resell it if you want to one day, even at the same price if you buy it secondhand. The standalone units are a bit tougher to sell. [/QUOTE]
