area. If the speaker's voice is louder, position the transmitter in the upper chest area.
The transmitter can be attached via its back clip or the clip magnet.

volume fluctuations. Avoid any obstructions of the transmitter during recording. It is
recommended to use the furry windshield to prevent audio interference when using the
transmitter outdoors.
