6.3.1 Connecting a Condenser Microphone
KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 setup with microphone and headphones.
Make sure to have connected the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 to your computer as described during
the installation chapter (chapter ā2, Installing KOMPLETE AUDIO 6) of this manual.
Make sure the volume on the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6's main outs (Volume Control knob
"MAIN VOLUME 1/2") is turned down before connecting a microphone to the KOM-
PLETE AUDIO 6. Microphones nearby speakers can cause a loud squealing tone from
the speakers due to a phenomenon called the Larsen effect or audio feedback loop and
can seriously damage your hearing and your equipment. The greater the distance be-
tween a microphone and speakers means this effect is less likely to occur.
To use the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 in a recording setup with a condenser microphone:
1. Turn the Volume Control knob (MAIN VOLUME 1/2) on the top panel of the KOMPLETE
AUDIO 6 to the left-end stop to set the main output volume to minimum.
2. Plug an XLR cable jack from your condenser microphone into either INPUT 1 or INPUT 2
on the front panel of your KOMPLETE AUDIO 6.
