Attaching the microphone boom
The neckband has two holders which are designed so that
the microphone booms can be worn on either side of the
mouth.
To change the microphone
boom, carefully lever it out of
theholder.To attachthemicro-
phone boom, press it into the
holder until it snaps in. The up-
perroundrecess isforthe HSP 2
(
∅ 1.1 mm). The lower square recess at the front keeps the
HSP 4 in a fixed, non-rotating position, thus ensuring that
the sound inlet is reliably directed towards the mouth.
Adjusting the neckband
You can adjust the neckband to
fit all head sizes. To do so,
change the length of the
neckband by pushing in or
pulling out the ear bows.

Positioning the microphone capsule (HSP 4)
The microphone capsule has a
cardioid pick-up pattern and is best
placed directly at the corner of the
mouth.

directly in front of your mouth as
it will pick up your breathing and
plosive noises from your mouth.
To position the microphone capsule, push the microphone
boom backwards or forwards in the holder.
The microphone capsule can be precisely positioned using
the flexible gooseneck.
