MOUNTING AND OPERATION

To get the sound you want, try changing the mic position relative to the
sound source oreven move the microphone around in the recording room of
your studio. Adjusting the angle at which walls face the sound source can also
be helpful. Only when the desired basic sound has been achieved, should
you start to use equalizers and signal processors,if any at all (remember:
less is often more!). Due to the extremely linear frequency response and the
high sonic resolution of your microphone, there is no need for high-frequency
"EQing" that can heavily influence the signal and unnecessarily increase the
noise level. The microphone provides that much-desired transparency which
often gets lost during recording and mixing.
There is an adapter on your microphone that lets you mount it on mic stands
with either metric (Europe) or imperial-gauge threads (North America).
First dismantle the microphone from the stand mount adapter by detaching
the fine-thread shoulder screw at the bottom end of the microphone. Fasten
the adapter onto the microphone stand, place the microphone into it and
tighten the screw again. Basically, the microphone in the stand mount adapt-
er should stand upright and face the sound source at a right angle.
The angle of the microphone to the sound source influences the sound of the
recording; therefore, experiment with different positions until you achieve
the desired sound. To this end, you can rotate the mic in the stand mount
adapter by loosening the screw somewhat and tightening it again. If neces-
sary, you can bend the microphone out of its vertical position by using the
hinge on the microphone stand.
NOTE: Please make sure to handle the microphone shaft with attention and
care to avoid damaging the screw thread. In no situation should you ever
apply excessive force.
Of course, you can detach the microphone from the stand mount adapter and
attach it to a commercially available suspension mount.
Make sure to speak/sing into the front side (see logo print) of the micro-
phone for the best sound:
