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/, is a 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
It is 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. The same  placement is optimal when miking an instrument such as an acoustic guitar, drums or piano. Experiment with different mic placements to find the best sound for your particular  setup.

Protecting your microphone
Avoid leaving your microphone in the open sun or in areas where temperatures exceed 110° F (43° C) for extended periods. Extremely high humidity should also be avoided.

Choose your output setting
When you plug microphone to your pc, it cancels the audio from any other audio file played or there’s no sound on the playback,you need to manually select the “speaker  (Realtek High Definition Audio)” as the default playback device.
