Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Devine USB 100 studio microphone. This studio microphone can be connected
directly to a computer thanks to the built-in USB audio interface and the supplied USB cable.
The Devine USB 100 is a versatile USB studio microphone with a stylish, vintage look. It is the ideal
Rockabilly-recording microphone thanks to its vintage-style combined with modern technology.
For optimal performance, connect the USB 100 to a computer. After the correct drivers are automatically
installed, the USB 100 will be ready for use. It can be used as a microphone for Skype, for example, as well
as for podcasting, broadcasting and vocal recording.
If you wish to use the USB 100 for recording applications, you'll need to install software to do so. Devine
recommends the free software Audacity.
The USB 100 performs best when placed on a microphone stand. This way, you can use the microphone in a
seated or standing position. The base of the microphone is equipped with a 5/8” thread, but a thread adapter
to 3/8” is included if your microphone stand requires it.
The super-cardioid polar pattern of the USB 100 is so that it picks up most of the sound directly in front of the
microphone and a little from the rear. For optimal sound quality, position the vocalist or musician as close to
the microphone as possible, approx. 2-3 centimetres, and make sure they sing/speak/play directly into the
front of the microphone.
Please note that the USB 100 microphone is a sensitive microphone and should be handled with care when
transported or installed. Impacts and/or severe vibrations may have a negative impact on the lifespan and
performance of the microphone. This microphone is not designed for on-the-road use.
