Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an AKG product. This
microphone provides optimum intelligibility and
audio quality for your meetings.
The CBL 410 PCC is also an excellent choice for
recording applications.
Please take a few minutes to
read the instruc-
tions, specifically the “Safety” and
“Environment” sections, carefully before
operating the equipment.
Please keep the
Manual for future reference.
Use
Single-microphone Setup
Insert the plug on the cable of your CBL 410 PCC
into the microphone input jack on your computer.
The microphone is a true “plug and play” device,
so there is no need to install a driver.
Place the microphone as far away from any loud-
speaker as possible and as close as possible to the
talker. Your microphone is now ready to operate.
Multiple Microphones
For online meetings with several talkers at your
end of the line, you will need more than one
CBL 410 PCC to capture all voices in the best
possible way.
Follow the instructions in “Single-microphone
Setup”.
Connect the second microphone to the IN jack
on the first microphone, the third microphone
to the second one, and so on. Do not “daisy-
chain” more than four microphones in this way.
Five or more microphones would overload the
microphone power supply on your computer,
resulting in audibly deteriorating sound quality.
Place the microphones on the conference
table such that no talker will be further away
from a microphone than 60 to 80 cm (24 to
30 inches). The 1-m (3-ft. 4-in.) microphone
cable should normally be long enough for the
purpose unless the table is too wide (see page
14). After the conference, simply dismantle all
connected microphones and bring into their
default state.
