Connect your microphone to a mixer or audio interface:
This microphone uses a 3-pin XLR connector for connection with your mixer or audio-interface (cable
included). It is recommended to check the settings on your audio equipment before connecting the
microphone. Check your equipment for the following settings:
Mixer/Audio interface:
- Gain set to the 0-point (in the most final counter-clockwise position)
- Compression/lowcut settings positioned in the off or most neutral position
- EQ settings on the most neutral position
- Pan/Balance settings on the most neutral position
- Volume fader or potentiometer set to the lowest possible position
- Phantom power in the ‘on’ position (mostly a button per channel, or a group of channels)
Microphone:
- Steady positioning on a microphone stand, with the included microphone clip
- Make sure the audio source (vocalist or instrument) is positioned as close as possible to the microphone
After you checked the settings above, you may start recording the audio source. Placing the audio source as
near to the microphone as possible, provides the best audio quality and grants you the ability to reduce
overall gain settings, which prevents audio feedback and noise.
Turn the volume parameter (potentiometer or fader) on the ‘0 dB’ position for the best audio performance and
slowly increase the gain, until slight clipping (mostly indicated with a (LED) VU meter or LED) or distortion is
noticed.
