Installing the Go Mic Connect is a simple procedure that takes just a few minutes. Simply connect
the included USB cable and begin recording. The following sections of this manual provide detailed
instructions on setting up your Go Mic Connect in Windows or MAC OS.
Windows
1.
The first time you plug the Go Mic Connect into a USB port, Windows will install the universal
USB drivers for that port.
2.
To set the Go Mic Connect as your default input/recording device, or to change its settings,
open the Control Panel’s Hardware & Sound settings, then click SOUND. Under the Recording
tab, you can select the Samson Go Mic Connect from the list of devices and press the Set
Default button to set the microphone as the default audio input and output device.
3.
To set the gain of the microphone, click the Properties button, and then select the Levels tab.
If the Microphone Level setting is displayed by
percentage, right-click the slider and change
the setting to
decibels. Slide the control until the desired level is reached. A good starting
point is to set the slider to 0dB. If you find that the microphone’s red clip LED is lighting
frequently, turn this control down until the LED no longer flashes red.
