OPERATIONS
We supply
E3C
with an easily adjustable, flexible and foldable earworn system allowing easy
and comfortable positioning around one ear. To properly work, your
E3C
needs 1.5-12V
Phantom power from your mixer and/or bodypack transmitter; activate the Phantom power
immediately after connecting all the microphones to your mixer. Don’t connect microphones
to the mixer (or the stagebox/wallbox) as long as the phantom power supply is switched on! In
order to prevent switch-on “thump” or “pop”, please mute your sound system before activating
the phantom power supply, then wait for several seconds before turning on your sound system.
Please, be careful handling your
E3C
since the internal diaphragm is very thin and it could
suffer for mechanical shocks and for excessive moisture. In order to avoid dust collecting over the
capsule, we suggest you to use the supplied plastic carrying case for microphone storage too.
Finding the optimal microphone placement is basically a process requiring trials; so make your
own experience starting from mic tech specs and your knowledge, continuously using your
musical sensibility and your ears. Don’t forget that every ambient has its own sonic character,
so every time you’ve to change some settings.
We suggest you to be careful moving while wearing your
E3C
since its omnidirectional polar
pattern, very useful to avoid sudden level boost or decrease, but it’s quite sensible to wedge
monitor feedback. The adjustable boom, together with three differently sized earpieces will
allow you easy and comfortable
E3C
placement over the ear of the user.
