Fix the microphone on the user's head, as close as pos-
sible to the mouth, and blend it in with the makeup.
Many engineers place the microphone as shown in fig. 7.
Depending on the requirements of the production at
hand, you may also attach the microphone, e.g., to the
performer's forehead.
You can use the supplied adhesive compound or H 40/1
clip to fasten the microphone on various instruments
(e.g., string instruments, guitar, wind instruments).
Since the microphone will sit very close to the sound
source, you can set the gain control on the console to a
rather low level. This means that the feedback risk in a
live situation will be very low.
1. To find the best position of the microphone on the in-
strument, try several different places on the instru-
ment and compare the sounds.
2. If you mount the microphone on a wind instrument,
consider slipping the supplied W 77 windscreen on
the microphone to reduce blowing noise.
