Connecting To a Windows Computer
When using the microphone for the first time, please be patient as the microphone driver
may take some time to automatically install. It is normal if there is no pop-up window or
message indicating the driver installation. However, if you plug the USB plug into a different
USB port, the driver may need to install again.
Once the driver installation is complete, you can test the microphone by speaking into it. If
the microphone does not pick up any sound, please follow the procedures below for
troubleshooting.
1. Right-click on the speaker icon located at the bottom right of the screen and click on
"Sounds." This will open the Sound Settings window.
7. For optimal recording results, it is recommended to maintain a pickup distance of 15 to 20
centimeters between the vocal source and the microphone. Placing the microphone directly in
front of the person speaking or singing is advised to achieve the best recording quality.

8
2. In the Sound Settings window, click on the "Sound control panel" link. This will open the
Sound Control Panel, providing more advanced sound settings.
3. Within the Sound Control Panel, confirm that the loudspeaker is turned on and
functioning properly. This ensures that the audio output is available for the microphone
to capture.

9
4. To adjust the volume output of the loudspeaker, locate the loudspeaker that is currently
being used, and click on "Properties." In the Speaker Properties window, navigate to the
"Levels" tab. Here, you can drag the progress bar to adjust the volume output to your
desired level.
5. Access the Recording tab and designate "FIFINE MICROPHONE" as the default device. As
you speak into the microphone, observe the bar-type icon turning green and bouncing. If
the icon does not change, try resetting your computer and connecting the microphone to
a different USB port. If you still do not see the "USB PnP Audio Device," please reach out
to Fifine's after-sales service for assistance.

10
6. To monitor your recording with the FIFINE MICROPHONE, follow these steps: click on
"Properties" in the Microphone settings, then select "Listen" and enable "Listen to this
device." Apply the changes to ensure sound is heard through your earphone or built-in
speaker. It's important to note that if you're using recording or chatting software like
Skype, make sure to turn off "Listen to this device" to avoid any conflicts.
7. To optimize the sound quality of your FIFINE MICROPHONE, follow these steps: double-
click on the "FIFINE MICROPHONE" to access the microphone properties window. Then,
under the Levels tab, right-click on the speaker icon and switch from percentage to
decibels. For the best mic sound, adjust the microphone level within the range of +14 to
+20 dB while ensuring that the output volume of the speaker is set to the maximum.
Connecting To a Mac Computer
1. Connect one end of the USB cable, which is provided, to the USB port on your computer.
Your computer will instantly detect the USB device and proceed to install the necessary
driver. Please note that you may not see a pop-up window or receive any messages
during this process.
2. To designate the FIFINE MICROPHONE as your audio input, begin by accessing your
computer's System Preferences.

11
3. Proceed by selecting "Sound" to bring up the Sound preference panel.
4. Within the panel, navigate to the "Input" tab and ensure that "FIFINE MICROPHONE" is
chosen as the primary input device. You can also adjust the input volume by dragging the
progress bar accordingly.

Important Notice
If you wish to monitor your voice on a MacBook, it is necessary to first activate a recording
software such as Audacity. Make sure to enable the "Software Playthrough" option by clicking
on it, and then click the record button to begin. Without this setup, you won't be able to hear
any sound when speaking into the microphone.
When using speech-to-text functionality on your MacBook, ensure that you have selected the
default dictation & speech settings. Open the Dictation window and enable the "On" option
so that the software can recognize your microphone.
If your Mac only has a USB-C port, you will require a genuine Apple USB-C to USB female
adapter for connection. Please connect the USB adapter to your Mac first and then attach the
microphone to the adapter. (This adapter is not included)
Troubleshoot Tips Both For Mac and Windows Computer
1. If your computer displays a prompt stating that it cannot identify USB devices, please
restart your computer, and reconnect the microphone to the rear USB port of your
computer.
2. In the event that the microphone is recognized but no sound is audible, please check
whether the System Sound is muted.
3. If the microphone is recognized but no sound is audible, and your PC is operating on
Windows 10, navigate to Settings > Privacy > Microphone. Click on "Allow apps to access
the microphone" to turn it ON, and then restart your PC.

13
Adjusting Recording Software Settings
1. Ensure that you have selected the correct input and output settings. If you encounter any
issues with the USB microphone being unavailable, log out of [Audacity] (or any other
recording software you are using) and restart the software after reconnecting the
microphone.
2. When using any recording software, make sure to disable the "listen to this device"
option in your computer system. Otherwise, you may experience echo-like effects,
hearing a duplicate of your own voice.
Input: USB PnP Audio device
Output: Please choose your desired device (speakers, headphones)

3. There are multiple ways to enhance your experience. Visit our website and navigate to the
"Support" tab to find technical support or search directly for the Technical Support
solution related to your specific inquiry.
4. For Windows computers, we recommend using Audacity. For Apple computers, you can
use Apple's QuickTime player to test the recording functionality.
5. Adjust the application settings for "Skype" accordingly.
Important Notice
Adjusting The Software Levels
Properly adjusting the microphone level is crucial for optimal performance. The ideal
microphone level should be set as high as possible without causing distortion or consistently
overloading the input of your computer. If you hear distortion or notice consistently
overloaded levels in your recording program, decrease the microphone volume or level. You
can do this through your control panel or system preferences settings, or within your
recording software. Conversely, if your recording program indicates insufficient level, you can
increase the microphone gain either through the control panel or system preferences
settings, or within your recording program.
Choosing Software
There are various recording software options available. Audacity, a widely used software, can
be downloaded for free online. It's important to note that if you plug in the microphone after
launching Audacity, it may not recognize the microphone properly. In such cases, restart
Audacity after connecting the USB microphone to your computer and select the Fifine
Microphone option.

15
Positioning The Microphone
Proper positioning of the microphone is essential for achieving the best frequency response.
Ideally, the microphone should be positioned directly in line (on axis) with the person
speaking, singing, or the sound source, such as a musical instrument. For speaking or singing
applications, it is recommended to place the microphone directly in front of the person.
Protecting The Microphone
To ensure longevity and optimal performance, avoid leaving your microphone in open air or
in areas where temperatures exceed 43°C for extended periods. Additionally, it is important
to avoid extremely high humidity conditions.
