Microphone Setup

1. Plug one end of the USB cable into the USB port of the microphone and connect the other end to the computer. After connecting the audio cable, you can start working directly.
2. If you need volume control, turn the volume knob to the right.

Power Requirements

1. The microphone is powered by your device’s USB port, meaning that in most instances you can just plug the microphone in and get started right away. For non-standard USB ports, a powered USB hub may be required. It is a “Plug & Play” USB device, compatible with both Windows and Mac system computers.
2. Placement of the microphone including the distance between microphone and the vocalist may vary on several factors like room acoustics, the vocal performance, and whether the vocalist has a high or deep voice.
3. An ideal starting point is to place microphone directly in front of the lead singer 15 cm(6″) distance. If the vocalist is closer to the mic, the vocal will sound more intimate and full, if the vocalist is a bit far away from the mic, the vocal contains more air sound, and will reduce the “close effect” (when the sound source is very close, bass and low frequency response will increase).
4. Experimentation should be made with the angle from which the microphone is addressed, as different results can be achieved.

Set Your Input Level

The microphone is set to an ideal internal gain by default. If you need to set a preferred sensitivity and headphone sound volume, please follow the following steps:

1. Check the hardware devices on the computer to see if there are any USB Audio devices.
2. Open the computer Audio equipment and input the Audio input terminal (i.e. microphone input). Select: “USB AUDIO” microphone input; Select “USB AUDIO headset” (headphone) at the output; In this way, the microphone can be input to the computer, and the voice can output from computer to the headset;
3. The sensitivity of the microphone can be adjusted in real time through the sound card attribute. It can be adjusted according to personal preference.
4. The microphone input level can can be monitored through the computer.
5. If you want to use the desktop microphone alone, you can disable the original sound card device on the computer to prevent conflicts;
6. If the computer cannot recognize the desktop microphone, try to disable the original sound card. To uninstall the device driver, the device name must be “USB AUDIO” or others names.
7. If the sound is low, please adjust the sound volume of each sound card;
8. The volume of microphone can be adjusted by the volume knob in front of the microphone.
