GETTING STARTED
ETHOS is a condenser microphone with active
electronics. This means:z
n Its output level will be naturally higher than many of
the dynamic broadcast microphones that it may be
replacing.z
n It is not uncommon to need to reduce gain if you
were previously using a dynamic microphonek
n You will need to engage phantom power on your
interface or preamp. Pro Tip: It's always a good idea
to plug in a condenser microphone while phantom
power is off and the channel is muted. After
engaging phantom power, give the microphone a
short time to settle before unmuting. z
n In-line preamps and level boosters like the
CloudLifter are not necessary.
Our advanced technology provides significantly more
flexibility with respect to placement relative to other
products traditionally found in broadcast. Start with EQ
flat, compression and other effects bypassed, and take
a couple of minutes to find a position that best
compliments your workflow, voice and space. With
your placement determined, EQ and effects can now
be added to taste.
