I just bought a Bass drum mic and I have connected it up with an Amp and I just can't get ANY sound out of it through my bass drum. The guy at the store said it would work If I set it up to a mic. I can tap it and get a sound but through my bass drum... Nope
You can tap it and get a sound? Then connections working.
Defective? Bring it back and ask.
It needs power but you should be getting that through your amp/cord.
mics are best used with PA systems. Amps are moreso for instruments. Mics can be used with amps, but not ideally. only in a make-shift kind of way.
all electronics that plug into each other must match Specifications-wise. a low impedence mic requires a low impedance cable. a high impedance mic requires a high impedance cable. same goes for the amplifier/mixer. same for speakers and their mixers or amps. speakers must match wattage AND ohms.
sounds like a sorting out of your chain is in order. more info is needed, if you've got it.
