3. Настройка

3.1 Нашэнне гарнітуры

  1. Gently place the headset over your ears, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
  2. Adjust the boom arm to position the microphone capsule approximately 1-2 cm (0.4-0.8 inches) from the corner of your mouth. This placement optimizes sound capture and minimizes plosives and breath noise.
  3. The headset can be worn on either the left or right ear. Adjust the boom arm's orientation as needed.

3.2 Падключэнне мікрафона

  3. Ensure the adapter is securely connected to your wireless transmitter or audio interface.
  4. Verify that phantom power (if using an XLR adapter) or the correct voltage from your wireless transmitter is supplied to the microphone.

4. Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

4.1 Audio Level Setting

  • Before use, perform a sound check to set appropriate gain levels on your connected wireless transmitter or audio mixer.
  • Speak or sing into the microphone at your typical performance volume.
  • Adjust the input gain to achieve a strong signal without clipping or distortion. Aim for peak levels around -6 dB to -3 dB on your meter.

4.2 Парады па выкарыстанні

  • Эфект блізкасці: Due to its cardioid pattern, the microphone exhibits a slight proximity effect. Maintain consistent distance from the corner of your mouth for a balanced sound.
  • Шум ветру: For outdoor use or in windy conditions, consider using a windscreen (sold separately) to minimize wind noise.
