FSM-170
Order No. 23.6140
Microphone with Stand
GB
Please read these operating instructions carefully
prior to operating the unit and keep them for later
reference.
1 Applications
This electret condenser microphone is suitable for
the sound pick-up of musical instruments as well as
for vocal sound (pick-up of chorus) and speech ap-
plications. Three replaceable microphone cartridges
with different directivities are supplied with the mi-
crophone. The stand has a boom arm of extra light-
weight, carbon fibre reinforced plastic and is sup-
plied with two telescopic tubes of different lengths.
For operation the microphone requires a phantom
power of 48 V. An illuminated ring on the microphone
shows that the microphone is ready for operation. A
level attenuation (10 dB) and a high pass filter can
be switched on.

2 Safety Notes

The microphone corresponds to all relevant direc-
tives of the EU and is therefore marked with
G
The microphone is suitable for indoor use only.
Protect it against humidity and heat (admissible
ambient temperature range 0 – 40 °C).
G
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth, never use
chemicals or water.
G
No guarantee claims for the microphone and no li-
ability for any resulting personal damage or ma-
terial damage will be accepted if the microphone
is used for other purposes than originally in-
tended, if it is not correctly connected or not re-
paired in an expert way.
If the microphone is to be put out of oper-
ation definitively, take it to a local recycling
plant for a disposal which is not harmful to
the environment.

3 Setting into Operation

1) As required, screw the short (13) or the long tel-
escopic tube (14) into the base (18) of the stand.
Screw the threaded head (6) of the boom arm
support onto the telescopic tube and fix it with the
counternut (8).
2) Screw the microphone cartridge (2) with the re-
quired directivity (symbol on the cartridge) onto
the upper end of the boom arm:
= omnidirectional, = cardioid,
cardioid
Insert the mini XLR plug (11) of the microphone
cable into the jack at the lower end of the boom
arm so that it locks into place. (For removing it
later, press the black button on the plug for un-
locking). Connect the XLR plug (15) to a micro-
phone input with 48 V phantom power (mixer, pre-
amplifier or additional phantom power adapter).
With phantom power applied, the red ring (3) on
the microphone lights up.
3) For height adjustment of the telescopic tube re-
lease the clutch (12) by turning it, extract the tube
to the desired length and retighten the clutch. For
height adjustment of the boom arm release the
clutch (7), the carbon tube (9) can now be moved
in the support. Then retighten the clutch. The in-
clination of the boom arm can be changed after
releasing the setscrew (5). The fine alignment of
the microphone can be made by bending the
gooseneck (4).
The cable can be fixed at the telescopic tube
by means of the clamping rings (10).
4) To reduce wind noise, e. g. when talking into the
microphone or when picking up wind instruments
at close range, place the windshield (1) onto the
.
microphone cartridge. It also protects the car-
tridge against humidity from your breath.
If the signal level of the microphone is too high
for the connected unit, set the switch (17) on the
XLR plug (15) to position "-10" (= 10 dB attenua-
tion) by means of a pointed object.
To suppress low-frequent interference (e. g.
subsonic sound), switch on the high pass filter
(position " ") with the other switch (16).
