Thank you for purchasing the Telinga Modular!
Before using it - please read the complete manual
.
Some important information:
1)
This parabolic dish/reflector does not contain any electronics and comes
without microphone & cable.
Therefore:
It is not compatible with Telinga
microphones but its design allows you to find a favorite setup with your own
microphones (or sensors) & cables. We recommend to start with an omni
pencile style microphone if you have not used a parabolic reflector before. The
Telinga Modular
is not designed for a particular microphone
, depending on
which “sound” you are looking for it allows many different microphones (or
sensors) to be used in the included dish basket/foam holder “suspension”.
If you ask us?
We love
SCHOEPS
microphones and
PRIMO
electrets (for stereo
PZM configurations in the dish).
2)
Folding the 22” Telinga parabolic dish.
Please only
store the dish folded
temporarily when travelling.
If you fold the dish away for longer periods of
time, weeks or months the dish will deform over time. If the dish deforms after
travelling please let it rest on a flat surface for 24-48 hours to regain shape.
Please keep any loose small parts and bags secured in a safe place away from
children.

)
Never point the parabolic dish directly towards the sun
! The sunrays
collected by the dish onto the focus of the dish might cause the foam to burn.
It is possible to use the
RYCOTE TELINGA OEM DISH HWC
(optional) to prevent
sunrays from entering the dish. Please see:
https://www.telinga.com/products/accessories/rycote-telinga-dish-hwc/
4)
When using your own cable coming out of the gray tube (please see
installation instructions) the cable might cause handling noise when the cable is
moving and twists. It sounds similar to microphone touching the foam inside
the basket.
To prevent this you must then hold the cable or secure it around
the handle.
Please see page. 7.
