PROFESSIONNAL DYNAMIC MICROPHONE FOR HARMONICA

Features:

The clear tone quality.
The solid metal structure used from high quality materials.
An integrated windscreen sponge against wind and breath noise.
Stable and reliable.
Volume knob on the microphone body.
XLR / Jack impedance adapter.

Specifications:

Type: cardioid.
Frequency response: 50Hz-15kHz.
Out impedance: 600Ω ±30% (at 1KHz).
Sensitivity: – 49±3dB (0dB=1v/pa at 1KHz).
Impedance adapter: 600Ω -> 50KΩ.

Connecting and disconnecting the microphone cable:

Insert the XLR connector into the microphone. If necessary, rotate the connector to align the key on the connector and the groove in the microphone, push the connector into the microphone until it clicks.
To disconnect the cable and the microphone, grasp the connector while depressing the tab. Pull the connector away from the microphone.

Using the Saint-Louis microphone:

The Saint-Louis microphone is used in the hand in the immediate vicinity of the harmonica.
The microphone has a smaller body and a mesh suitable for the harmonica.
A rotary volume knob has been cleverly placed on the body so that the musician can intervene on the microphone volume at any time quickly and easily. ****
To be able to use the sound of the microphone on “guitar” type effects pedals, an impedance transformer on a Jack / XLR adapter is provided in the box.

Cautions:

If the head of the microphone is covered by hand or brought close to the speaker, howling sound may be generated. To prevent this, first decrease the volume, then place the microphone so that it is not pointed to the speaker and that there is a sufficient distance between the microphone and speaker.
It is important to keep foreign particles out of the grill and the windscreen because they may alter the frequency response of the microphone. The grill shall be periodically cleaned using warm soap water, rinsed with plain water and let dry before replacing.
Due to the high sensitivity of the cartridge do not drop it from high or apply strong shock to it.
To maintain the sensitivity and quality of the sound reproducing, avoid exposing it to moisture and extreme temperatures.
