Low-Cut Switch
The Low-Cut Switch is located on the front-right side of the
microphone, and inserts a low-cut filter at 80Hz (left
position) or 160Hz (right position). The switch’s center
position removes the filter for a flat frequency response.
Wind noise, plosives, footfall noise or rumble might affect
the recorded signal, so enabling the low-cut filters reduces
such unwanted noise and prevents distortion. Additionally,
the low-cut filters also minimize the proximity effect when
recording sound sources at a very short distance.
Powering
To ensure proper operation, the microphone requires a phantom power source providing 48 Volts
according to IEC 61938.
Risk of damage
Do not connect the microphone to any power supply other than a
phantom power source (input with phantom power or external IEC
standard phantom power supply) with a floating connector, using a
balanced cable with studio grade connectors to IEC 268-12 only. This
is the only way to ensure safe and reliable operation.
Safety and maintenance
Risk of damage
Please make sure that the piece of equipment to which your
microphone will be connected fulfils the safety regulations enforced in
your country and is fitted with a ground lead.
Cleaning the microphone
After every use, clean the microphone with a dry, soft cloth tissue and store it in a solid case or a
zipper pouch.
