Carefully select a place for setting up the GoldMike. The unit
should be situated away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
Avoid installing your GoldMike in environments exposed to vibra-
tions, dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep the unit away from trans-
formers or motors or any other unit that could generate large
variations in power supply or cause electrical interferences. Do
not install the unit in close proximity to power amplifiers or
digital processors. You may consider placing it in a rack contai-
ning other analog gear. Such placement can prevent interference
from Word Clock, Smpte, MIDI, etc.
• Do not open the case. You may risk electric shock and may
damage your equipment.
• Leave repairs and maintenance to a qualified service technician.
Should foreign objects fall inside the case, contact your authorised
dealer or support person.
• To avoid electric shock or fire hazards do not expose your unit to
rain or dampness.
• In case of lightning unplug the unit. Please unplug the cable by
pulling on the plug only; never pull on the cable.
• Never force a switch or knob.
• To clean the case use a lint-free cloth. Avoid cleaning agents as
they may damage the chassis. Manufactured in standard 19" EIA
format, it utilises two rack units.
• Please support the back of the unit whenever it is being mounted
into a 19" rack (especially important when touring).
Again, while GoldMike's housing is EMV-proof and protects
against HF-interference, placement of the unit is very important
since it is capable of amplifying microphone signals as well as
other unwanted signals up to 2200 times. Before connecting the
GoldMike, or any other equipment, turn off all power. Adjust the
voltage setting on the back so that it corresponds with the power
conditions.The GoldMike's XLR inputs, which are used for connec-
ting microphone and line level signals, are electronically
balanced, while the outputs allow for simultaneous feed to the
balanced XLR connectors as well as to the unbalanced 1/4"
outputs. The unit can even be used as a microphone splitter.
