MM 1 — Condenser Measurement Microphone
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Connection
� The MM 1 is equipped with a 3-pin XLR connector .
You can connect it to any microphone input with
phantom power (12 - 48 V) with a suitable microphone
cable . Activate phantom power for this purpose .
Caution: Carelessly laid cables are a trip hazard .
�
People can be injured and the microphone
can be damaged .
Operation
When setting up the MM 1, make sure that there
�
are no large objects close to the microphone, which
could influence the sound field and place the
microphone clamp as far down as possible .
Note on the calibration of loudspeakers in studio
�
rooms:
When measuring loudspeakers and other sound
sources with a high direct sound level, you should set
up the MM 1 so that the microphone axis is at 90° to
the sound source (see illustration below) . This ensures
a linear recording with all frequencies . With direct
sound input from the front, a slight pressure build-up
becomes evident at frequencies above 10 kHz . This
leads to a boost at high frequencies (refer to the
frequency response curve at 0°) .
With lower frequencies, there is no pressure build-up
and the polar pattern is exactly omnidirectional .
Depending on the alignment of the microphone to
�
the sound source, you should use the appropriate
calibration file . The individual compensation curves
of the 0° and 90° free-field measurement of your MM 1
can be requested from beyerdynamic free of charge,

�
clamp for tripods with 3/8" thread . For tripods with
a 5/8" thread, you can unscrew the threaded insert .
Caution: A tripod with an insecure stand can fall
�
over and damage a microphone mounted
on it . Make sure the tripod stands stable .
