- On/Off Switch : This allows the user to turn the microphone on or off. An on/off switch is a convenient feature for live performances, enabling quick muting of the microphone between uses.

Usage Instructions
Care and Maintenance
- Store the microphone in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent damage.
- Regularly clean the microphone using a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For stubborn stains, dampen the cloth slightly with water or a mild detergent solution, then wipe gently. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the microphone’s finish.
- Clean the built-in wind and pop filter regularly to prevent the buildup of dirt and debris. Use a soft brush or compressed air to gently remove any particles from the filter.
- Handle the microphone with care to avoid dropping or knocking it against hard surfaces, which could cause damage to the microphone capsule or internal components.
- Properly coil and store the microphone cable when not in use to prevent tangling and damage to the cable connectors.
- Keep the microphone away from liquids and moisture to prevent internal damage. Avoid using the microphone in humid environments or outdoors without proper protection.

Troubleshooting
- No Sound Output:
- Check the microphone cable connections to ensure they are securely plugged into the microphone and the audio input device.
- Test the microphone with another audio input device to determine if the issue is with the microphone or the device.
- If using an audio interface or mixer, ensure that the microphone input channel is properly configured and the input gain is set correctly.
- Try using a different microphone cable to rule out cable-related issues.
- Low Volume or Distorted Sound:
- Adjust the microphone gain or input level on your audio interface or mixer to achieve the desired volume without distortion.
- Check for any obstructions or debris blocking the microphone grille, which may affect sound quality.
- Ensure that the microphone is not positioned too close to loud sound sources, as this can cause distortion.

- Intermittent Sound or Connection Issues:
- Inspect the microphone cable for any signs of damage, such as fraying or exposed wires. Replace the cable if necessary.
- Try using a different XLR cable or connector to see if the issue is with the cable or connector.

- Ensure that the microphone’s on/off switch is functioning properly and is set to the correct position.
- Test the microphone with another audio input device to determine if the issue is device-specific.
- Excessive Noise or Feedback:
- Move the microphone away from any sources of interference, such as speakers or electronic devices, to minimize feedback.
- Adjust the microphone placement and direction to optimize sound pickup while minimizing background noise.
