Make sure that children never use the device unattended! In addition, make sure that children do not remove any (small) parts from the device, as they could suffocate by swallowing them!

DANGER! (Electrical shock due to high voltages in the device)
Do not remove the housing. There are no parts to be maintained in the device. Inside the device there are components which are under high electrical voltage.
The device must not be used as soon as damage or the absence of components, protective devices or housing parts is noticed!

DANGER! (Electric shock caused by short circuit)
Modifications to the power cord or plug are prohibited. Failure to do so may result in fire or death due to electric shock!

NOTE! (Fire hazard)
Ensure that the unit is not exposed to a direct source of heat and is used away from open fire. Never cover or tape any ventilation slits or the device itself.

NOTE! (Operating conditions)
Due to its structural characteristics, the device is designed for indoor use. Never expose the device to rain, moisture or liquids as this may cause damage. Vibrations, dirt or sunlight can also cause damage – avoid them!

NOTE! (Power supply)
It is essential that you check that the device voltage matches your local mains voltage. It is strongly recommended that you fuse your mains socket with a residual current circuit breaker (FI). If you do not use your device for a longer period of time, disconnect it from the mains. to minimize danger. The same applies to storm conditions such as thunderstorms or floods, etc..

Installation:
Be sure to check the unit for damage before using it. Optimally, use the original packaging or suitable transport or storage packaging to protect the product from dust, moisture, etc. when not in use.

Equipment and use:
The FAME MC 10 allows to amplify incoming microphone signals. The front also features a high-pass switch that filters out footstep/low-frequency noise and a 48V phantom power switch (for condenser microphones). The connectors are standardized 3-pin XLR sockets. Please read the following instructions to avoid damage to the device:

Commissioning

All connections of the device should be made before switching on. Only use high-quality cables that are as short as possible for the connections.

Connect your microphone to the input of the MC10 via the microphone cable (standard -3pin XLR).
Connect the output of the MC10 to the input of a mixer/audio interface or similar via XLR cable.
Only switch on 48V phantom power when using a condenser microphone.
Do not turn on 48V phantom power until the unit is fully wired and activated.
Turn off 48V phantom power before turning off the unit

Note on operation:
When switching on the FAME MC 10, make sure that the gain control is turned to 0 and turn it up slowly. The Clip LED lights red when the signal is overdriven. Turn down the Gain knob until the Clip LED stops lighting. When using headphones, it is recommended that you lower the volume control before turning on the headphones and turn it up slowly. This procedure prevents hearing damage by not exposing the ear to sudden, extreme/ loud signals.
