Apologies if this has been asked already
But do XLR mics work with rock band. I got the USB adapter cable, and the phantom power supply for it.
Short answer: yes, it’s possible.
Longer answer: for the game to recognize the Mic and score vocals, you should connect it using a modified version of the standard Logitech microphone sold for RB (or similar ones from GH, etc.).
In brief, cut the microphone cable such that you have the USB connector and the printed circuit board inside the plastic housing still attached, then about a foot of cable. Strip the wires and attach a 1/4″ mono plug jack. Then you can plug in the microphone using a 1/4″ to XLR cable.
Dynamic mics are recommended so you don’t need phantom power. Good luck!
As far as I know not all of them work, and they could different from console to console. I remember the Blue Icicle being the choice when people were talking about XLR -> USB adapters on the official Rock Band forums, but that forum is dead so I cannot get the link to confirm for which console it was.
