Connecting the
cable:
Disconnecting
the cable:
1. On the XLR connector (4), add a wire bridge to
connect pin 1 to pin 3 and the cable shield.
2. Connect the inside wire of the cable to pin 2
on the XLR connector (4) and the tip contact
of the jack plug (5).
Unbalanced cables may pick up interference
from stray magnetic fields near power or lighting
cables, electric motors, etc. like an antenna.
This may introduce hum or similar noise when
you use a cable that is longer than 16 feet (5 m).
The optional B 29 L battery supply allows you to
connect the microphone to balanced or un
-
balanced inputs with no phantom power.
1. Push the mini XLR connector (1) on the micro-
phone cable into one of the two mini XLR
sockets on the B 29 L (2) to the stop.
The connector will lock automatically.
To disconnect the cable, press the unlocking
button on the mini XLR connector (1) and pull
the connector (1) out of the socket.
