Connectingyourmicrophone
Themicrophoneprovidesabalanced3‐pinmaleXLRoutputconnector.

Youcanconnectthemicrophoneeithertoabalancedoranunbalancedmicrophoneinput.
XLRsocketsonmixersorotherequipmentarealmostalwaysbalancedmicrophoneinputs.
PleaseuseahighqualityXLRcable.

Youcanalsoconnectthemicrophonetoanunbalancedjack(mono)input.Useacablewitha
femaleXLRconnectoranda1/4inchTSjackplug.Don’tusecableslongerthen5
meters/16ft,becauseunbalancedconnectionsmaypickupinterferencefrommagneticfields
likepowerlines,electricmotors,dimmers,toavoidhumandothernoise.

TheDCB‐4andDCT‐4arelowimpedancemicrophonesanddon’tneedphantompower.The
CMA‐9isacondensermicrophonethatdoesrequiresphantompower(48vDC).
TheDCB‐4andDCT‐4willnotbeeffectedbyrunningphantompower.

Don’tplugorunplugyourmicrophonefromyourequipmentunlessthechannelvolumeis
turneddownfullyormuted.
