MOUNTING AND OPERATION
To get the sound you want, try changing the mic position relative to the
sound source oreven move the microphone around in the recording room
of your studio. Adjusting the angle at which walls face the sound source can
also be helpful.
There is an adapter on your microphone that lets you mount it on mic
stands with either metric (Europe) or imperial-gauge threads (North
America).
Basically, the microphone in the stand mount adapter should stand upright
and face the sound source at a right angle. Of course, you can detach the
microphone from the stand mount adapter and attach it to a
commercially available suspension mount.
The angle of the microphone to the sound source influences the sound
of the recording; therefore, experiment with different positions until you
achieve the desired sound. To this end, you can rotate the mic in the stand
mount adapter by loosening the screw somewhat and tightening it again. If
necessary, you can bend the microphone out of its vertical position by using
the hinge on the microphone stand.
It is often advisable to use a pop filter (not included) when recording
vocals, not only to ovoid overly accentuated ´S, ´P´ and ´B´sounds, but
also to protect the mic from moisture. it is always a good idea to store the
microphone in its protection bag when not in use.
Connect the microphone to a mixer or recording device with a high quality
XLR cable before turning on the phantom power. Make sure all volume ond
gain controls on your mixer, mic preamp or recording device are at their
minimum volume settings when switching the phantom power on. Once
the MCOO1 is plugged in and the phantom power is switched on, Move the
channel fader gradually to the 0dB position adjust the input gain using your
channel peak led or VU-meter.
NOTE: Please make sure to handle the microphone shaft with attention and
care to avoid damaging the screw thread. In no situation should you ever
apply excessive force.
Low Cut Filter: To operate the low cut switch, unscrew the bottom of the
microphone housing, slide the microphone body from the chassis.
Look for the blue switch in the middle of the microphone circuit board.
Pressing the swith activates the low cut filter.
