unwanted sound source, such as a loudspeaker.
• Place the tip of the microphone within 15 to 30 cm (6 to 12 in.) of the desired sound source.
• Always use pop filter foam to control ‘pop’ sounds & breathe noise.
• If four or more microphones will be open at the same time, use of a conference mixer, such as
the Studiomaster Professional Vak 20, is recommended.
