Important Notice
Setting volume levels
Ideally, the mic level should be as hight as possible without overloading. When you use
USB connection, you can adjust the volume by following steps. If you hear distortion, or
your recording program shows levels that are consistently overloaded (at peak levels),
turn down the mic volume (or level) by the mic gain knob or computer setting. If your
recording program shows insufficient level, turn up the mic volume (or level) by the mic
gain knob or computer setting. When you use XLR connection, you can adjust the output
volume on sound card, mixer or audio interface to set an appropriate volume.
Selecting software
Many recordings software can be chose. Audacity, available for free online is a widely
used software. If you plug in the mic AFTER you load Audacity, it may not recognize the
mic while it may still record, the results will be unsatisfactory. If that happens, restart
Audacity AFTER plugging the USB into your computer and click on fifine Microphone
option.
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 mount, instrument or any other sound source. The best
range is 2 to 6 inches. (Recommend to se the mic gain knob about 30% to get better
effect).
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.
Tips:
1. 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 payback, you
need to manually select the “speaker (Relatek High-Definition Audio)” as the
default playback device, if you want to output computer audio via the computer
built-in speaker.
2. There is no XLR cable included.
