PRODUCT INFORMATION MCE 72
Thank you for selecting the MCE 72 stereo condenser
microphone. Please take some time to read carefully
through this product information before using the product.
Important Notes
• Protect the microphone from moisture and sudden
impacts. You could either injure yourself or others or
damage the microphone.
• Do not blow into the microphone. In a condenser
microphone this could damage the transformer. It is
preferable to carry out a speech trial.
• When using wired microphones always ensure that
the microphone cable is laid so that it does not present
a trip hazard.
Application
The MCE 72 has been developed for XY recording. It is
suitable for stereo recording in home studio applications,
concert recordings with DAT or MD, film, video and inter-
viewing.
The MCE 72 is available in three versions:
• The MCE 72 is battery powered.
• The MCE 72 CAM is battery powered and supplied
with accessories for camera use.
• The MCE 72 PV CAM is phantom powered and
supplied with accessories for camera use.
Putting into Operation
MCE 72 PV CAM
The MCE 72 PV CAM can only be used with a phantom
power between 11 and 52 V.
MCE 72 / MCE 72 CAM
The MCE 72 and MCE 72 CAM can be used battery-
powered only. Phantom power is not possible.
Using the switch the microphone can be switched on and
off and the battery status can be checked.
Position “OFF”:
Battery power or microphone is
switched off.
Position “B.C.”
Battery condition is checked. The
red LED is illuminated when the
battery has full capacity.
If the LED does not illuminate,
there is no battery inserted or the
battery capacity is too weak and
the battery has to be replaced.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the microphone in
this position, as the battery will
rapidly become exhausted.
Position “ON”:
Battery power is switched on; the
microphone is ready for operation.
How to insert the Battery
Unscrew the lower part of the microphone anti-clockwise
and insert the supplied alkaline battery (1.5 V) into the
battery compartment according to the polarity marks.
Screw the lower part of the microphone clockwise onto
the upper part.
Important:
• If you do not use the microphone for several weeks or
months, please remove the battery as it can discharge
(due to stand-by current) or leak after some time and
damage parts of the microphone. Even “leak proof”
may leak after some time. Damage caused by leaking
batteries is not covered under warranty.
• Please do not throw used battery packs away with
your household rubbish, but take them to your local
collection points.
Connection
The
MCE 72
and
MCE 72 CAM
provide a 5-pin XLR plug.
Use the supplied cable (5-pin XLR/3.5 mm stereo jack) to
connect the microphone to devices with 3.5 mm stereo jack
socket. The microphones are suitable for direct connection to
most camcorders, DAT and MD recorders. If the input of
the recorder has a plug-in power, the function of the
MCE 72 is not affected.
The
MCE 72 PV CAM
also provides a 5-pin XLR plug. The
MVK 82 N(CM) cable must be used to connect the micro-
phone.
