the dynamic microphones that it may be replacing.
It is not uncommon to need to reduce gain if you
were previously using a dynamic microphone.`

interface or preamp. Pro Tip: It's always a good idea
to plug in a condenser microphone while phantom
power is off and the channel is muted. After
engaging phantom power, give the microphone a
short time to settle before unmuting.

8Q First unscrew the top half of the microphone (the
basket).2
/Q Cleaning the External Stainless Screen - unscrew
the external stainless screen.2
6Q Cleaning the Dual Stainless Pop Filter - both sides
can be cleaned, but most of the dirt will be on the
side facing the external screen.2
)Q Internal Stainless Windscreen - it would be
extremely rare if the internal windscreen should
ever need cleaning, but it may be cleaned if the
need arises. As this windscreen is very close to the
microphone element, be extra careful that the
windscreen is dry before reassembly.
