Operation
The product must only be connected to suitable microphone inputs in
order to avoid distortions or mismatches that could cause damage to the
microphone or the connected audio device. Pay attention to the connection
values in the "Technical data".
Never direct the microphone at the sound outlet of loudspeakers, as this
can result in feedback which may damage the loudspeakers and the
connected amplifier.
a) Connection
1.
Ensure that you place the product in a secure position.
2. Slide the windscreen onto the microphone head (6).
3.
Turn off the audio device to which the microphone will be connected.
4.
Insert the XLR connector (4) on the microphone cable into the microphone
connection on your audio device. Use an adapter (not included) if you wish to
connect the microphone using a 3.5 mm jack socket (XLR to 3.5 mm jack socket).
b) Switch positions

c) Using the microphone
1.
Turn the sensitivity of your audio device to zero using the corresponding input level
control (refer to the operating instructions of the audio device you are using).
2. Turn on your audio device with the connected sound source (loudspeakers).
3.
Turn on the microphone using the on/off switch (1) on the stand (7) (move to the
ON
position). The LED indicator (2) turns on. Press the switch again to turn off the
microphone (move to the
OFF
position). The LED indicator turns off.
4.
Test the microphone by speaking a few words whilst slowly moving the input level
control on the audio device upwards until the desired output volume is reached.
Air movements such as wind, moving the microphone or breathing create
deep frequencies in the sound spectrum. The attached windscreen (8) made
of sponge prevents such sounds from being recorded.
