IMPORTANT NOTICE

Setting the volume levels

Correct adjustment of microphone level is important for optimum performance. Ideally,

the microphone level should be as high as possible without overloading the input of

your computer.

If you hear distortion, or if your recording program shows levels that are consistently

overloaded (at peak levels), turn the microphone gain (or level) down, either through the

knob on the mic, the system settings, or through your recording software. If your

recording program shows insufficient level, you can increase the microphone gain either

through the knob on the mic, the system settings, or through your recording software.

Select software

You have many choices in recording software. Audacity, available for free online at

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/, is a widely used software.

Note: You need to plug the mic in the computer first and then launch the recording

software. The software may not recognize the mic if you plug the mic into the computer

after the computer after you have launched the software.

15

Positioning your microphone

To achieve the best frequency response, it is important to have the mic capsule (the top

of the mic) pointed at the user's mouth, instrument or any other sound source.

For speaking/singing applications, the ideal position of the microphone is directly in

front of the person who is speaking/ singing. The same position is optimal when miking

an instrument such as an acoustic guitar, drums or piano. Test the mic in different

positions to find the best sound for your particular setup.

Protecting your microphone

Avoid leaving your microphone in the open air or in areas where temperature exceed

110° F (43° C) for extended periods. Extremely high humidity should also be avoided.

Choose your output setting

When you plug microphone to your PC, it cancels the audio from any other audio file

played or there’s no sound on the playback, you need to manually select the "speaker

(Realtek High Definition Audio)" as the default playback device, if you want to output

computer audio via the computer built-in speaker.
