Function Descriptions
XLR Port: used to connect to audio device such as audio interface and mixer via XLR cable.
Operation Instructions
-
To connect the mic with XLR cable, align the XLR connector with the 3-pin connector on mic, then insert fully until the XLR lock button locks in place.
-
Connect the other end of the XLR cable with audio device, e.g., mixer, power amplifier, audio interface.
-
Hold the mic by hand, or install it on a stand. For stand installation, first fix the mic clamp onto the 3/8″ or 5/8″ standard-threaded connector on the stand, then secure the mic onto the clamp as shown below:
-
Please turn the volume to the minimum on the audio device (e.g., audio interface, mixer) before switching on the phantom power. Then gradually increase the volume to an appropriate level. This helps to prevent the speakers from being damaged by high sound pressure. Keep a proper distance between the mic and the speakers to avoid feedback howling and ensure audio quality.
-
Please speak towards the top of the mic grille while recording, recommended at 5-lOcm speak distance.
-
To disconnect the mic from XLR cable, press down the XLR lock button and unplug the cable.
