Important Notice
Setting your software levels
Correct adjustment of microphone level is important for optimum performance.
Ideally, the microphone level should be as high as possible without
overloading the input of your computer. If you hear distortion, or if your
recording program shows levels that are consistently overloaded (at peak
levels), turn the microphone volume (or level) down, either through your
control panel (or system preferences) settings, or through your recording
software. If your recording program shows insufficient level, you can increase
the microphone gain either from the control panel (or system preferences)
settings or through your recording program.
Selecting software
You have many choices in recording software. Audacity, available for free
online at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/, isa widely used software program
that provides basic recording software.
Note: The microphone must be plugged in first and secondly turning on the recording software.
Positioning your microphone
Itis important to position the microphone directly in line (on axis) with the
person speaking/ singing or instrument (or other sound source) to achieve the
best frequency response of the microphone. For use in speaking/singing
applications, the ideal placement for the microphone is directly in front of
the person speaking/singing.
Protecting your microphone
Avoid leaving your microphone in the open air or in areas where temperatures
exceed 110° F (43° C) for extended periods. Extremely high humidity should
also be avoided.
