CARE AND PRECAUTIONS
• When not in use, please store your V13 microphone in the provided padded wooden
microphone case. We recommend keeping the plastic sleeve that the microphone is shipped
in, and keeping it on the microphone when not in use to prevent debris build-up on the
capsule.
• When using for close-mic’d vocals, it is important to use a high quality Pop Filter to protect the
capsule against breath moisture, as well as plosive blasts like “P”, “K”, “T”, etc. Failure to use a
Pop Filter may result in damage to your microphone.
• Always protect your V13 from any hard jolts, drops, and vibrations. Although it is ruggedly
constructed, it is a professional tool and should be treated with respect. Always handle with
care.
• For best performance, stability, & longevity, do not expose the microphone to any moisture or
smoke.
• DO NOT
open the V13 microphone while plugged in - very high voltages are present!
•
DO NOT
open the PS-13 power supply under any condition. See the “SERVICE AND WARRANTY”
section below if you have any issues with your PS-13 power supply.
• Before each use, turn on the power supply after the microphone is plugged in and allow the
tube circuitry 5 minutes to warm up and stabilize.
• Don’t use this product in or near water, during a lightning storm, etc. It is intended as a
professional studio microphone only.
IMPORTANT! BEFORE PLUGGING THE MIC IN
Make sure the proper AC MAINS operating voltage has been selected on the
rear of the
PS-13
power supply!
