Before setting up the microphone, pull back all existing settings and EQ. By doing this, you will have a
baseline understanding of how our microphones sound, and will then be able to adjust accordingly.
Begin by removing all included components from the packaging. Make sure to mute any incoming
signal to speakers or headphones to avoid any loud “pops” when connecting.
Connect the microphone to an audio interface supplying 24-48V phantom power using a standard
XLR cable. Please allow one minute for the microphone to settle.
To guarantee your microphone provides years of performance, follow these guidelines:
• Avoid extreme heat and condensing humidity.
• Rough handling may damage the microphone even if no markings are visible.
• When not in use, keep the microphone in its case.
GETTING STARTED
