4.1 Alimentation du microphone
The MS-189 microphone offers two power options:
- Phantom Power (9-52V): If your audio mixer, interface, or computer sound card provides phantom power, connect the microphone using an XLR cable. The microphone will draw power directly from the connected device. Ensure phantom power is enabled on your device.
- AA Batteries (2 x 1.5V): If phantom power is not available, insert two 1.5V AA batteries into the battery compartment located on the underside of the microphone base. Ensure correct polarity (+/-) when inserting batteries.
Note: Do not use both phantom power and batteries simultaneously. The microphone will prioritize phantom power if both are connected.
4.2 Connexion à un appareil
The MS-189 connects via an XLR connector.
- Locate the XLR output port on the microphone base.
- Connect one end of a standard XLR cable (not included) to the microphone's XLR output.
- Connect the other end of the XLR cable to an available XLR input on your audio mixer, audio interface, or computer sound card. Ensure the input is compatible with a condenser microphone.
4.3 Placement du microphone
Place the microphone on a stable, flat surface. Position the gooseneck so the microphone head is approximately 15-30 cm (6-12 inches) from the speaker's mouth, pointing directly towards them for optimal sound capture.
