INSTRUCTION MANUAL

PMD1 &  PMD1S

Handheld Microphone

Congratulations on purchasing your new Australian Monitor microphone.

The PMD1 and PMD1S premium dynamic supercardioid microphones feature neodymium motors with  
aluminium voice coils, ensuring super-fast transient response. Both models also feature an isolation transformer 
which ensures RF and electrical noise isolation. The incorporated capsule isolation system keeps handling noise 
to a bare minimum. While the PMD1 and PMD1S are tailored for vocal reproduction, both models can also be 
used to reproduce instruments as well.
These premium microphones are highly recommended for presentations, stage vocal performance, instrument 
reproduction, percussion reproduction, and many other applications.
