GETTING STARTED
The M30 is a condenser microphone with active
electronics. This meansm
` Its output level will be naturally higher than many of
the dynamic microphones that it may be replacing.
It is not uncommon to need to reduce gain if you
were previously using a dynamic microphone.s
` You will need to engage phantom power on your
interface or preamp. Pro Tip: It's always a good idea
to plug in a condenser microphone while phantom
power is off and the channel is muted. After
engaging phantom power, give the microphone a
short time to settle before unmuting.
