THANK YOU!
Thank you for purchasing the United Studio Technologies UT Twin87. We realize how many
microphone choices are out there, and we are honored that you have given us a chance. We
have done all that we can to exceed your expectations in a quality microphone, in terms of
craftsmanship, feel, appearance, and most importantly, sound. We make our microphones
not to be good for a price; but to simply be the best we can make them, and to be as good as
the best products available. We have scrutinized and labored over not just the major parts; but
every component from end to end, as well as the circuit design and mechanics. With proper
care, our products should last a lifetime of use and beyond.

SAFETY
Warning: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not open the
device as there are no user-servicable parts inside.
Refer servicing
to qualified personnel!
1. Read and keep these instructions; heed all warnings, and follow
all instructions.
2. Do not expose this device to rain and moisture.
3. Clean only with a dry cloth.
4. Servicing is required when the device has been damaged in
any
way.
5. Always connect with a standard 3 pin XLR (male XLR to female
XLR) cable that is in good working order.
6. Always fully connect microphone cable on both ends before
en48v Phantom Power.
7. Always dis48v Phantom Power and give the microphone
a few moments to fully discharge before disconnecting the
microphone cable.
8. DO NOT pass this microphone signal directly through a TT
(tiny telephone, tip-ring-sleeve) or TRS (¼ inch, tip-ring-sleeve)
patchbay! A preamp, of course, can be followed by a patch bay; just
not a microphone signal.
9. This microphone ships with a silica gel packet. Do not discard it;
this ensures that moisture/humidity does not accumulate on the
mic capsule diaphragm and that no part of the device begins to
oxidize. If the silica package becomes lost or discolored, replace it
with a new, good quality silica gel packet.
