Using the product
Microphone orientation
Use the product with the front part facing the sound source.
Set this product and the sound source nearby. It is more difficult to pick up noise other than the target sound source.
If wind or breath noise is present, move the product slightly away from the front of the sound source and point it
toward the speaker.
Using software for recording
Software for recording is not included with the product. To use the product to record audio, use separate recording
software. You may need to set up the recording software, such as by setting the audio input and output. For details, see
the User Manual for the recording software.
Adjusting the microphone level
To get the best performance, you need to appropriately adjust the microphone level of the product.
If the sound is distorted, or the recording software you are using is always at peak levels, then decrease the microphone
level of the product in the settings on the control panel (system preferences for macOS) or the settings for the recording
software you are using. If you feel that the product's microphone level is insufficient, then increase the microphone level
of the product in the settings on the control panel (system preferences for macOS) or the settings for the recording
software you are using. After that, you do not need to adjust the microphone level of the product, unless the volume of
the sound source varies greatly.
