Quick Start - Connect to a Mixer
Follow this simple quick start to connect your Q9U to a mixer or interface.
1.
Mount the Q9U on your microphone stand according to your desired
application.
2.
Connect to the mixer or interface using a standard XLR cable.
3.
Follow the manfacturer’s instruction for the mixer or interface in order
to properly set input gain in order to optimize performance.
Microphone Polar Pattern
An important characteristic of any microphone is its directionality or polar pattern.
The Q9U features a unidirectional (cardioid) dynamic element with humbucking
coil.
The following is a brief explanaton of the features of this polar pattern to help you
understand the many use cases for a microphone such as the Q9U.
The cardioid pickup pattern is the most widely used for studio and live miking
applications. It captures sound in front of the microphone and rejects sound
from the sides and back, which allows for better separation of instruments in the
studio, and picks up more of the instrument sound in relation to the sound of the
room. The separation also allows for more control and more gain before feedback
in live sound reinforcement situations.
Cardioid microphones exhibit a phenomenon known as proximity effect. Proximity
effect is a resulting change in the frequency response of a microphone based on
the position of the mic capsule relative to the sound source. In general as the
microphone moves closer to the sound source the bass response increases.
