AKG D40 - Guitar Amp; Tom-Toms, Roto-Toms, Snare Drum

3 Using Your Microphone
Loudspeakers radiate high frequencies within a very narrow an-
gle.
Place the microphone about 2 to 6 inches in front of the loud-
speaker diaphragm and aim the microphone at the center of the
diaphragm.
1. To prevent the top head from ringing excessively, tape a
strip of felt or a piece of tissue paper to the skin in an off-
center position.
2. Screw the supplied H 440 bracket to the stand adapter on
the microphone using the captive knurled-head screw on
the H 440 bracket.
