Important!
With resonances at low frequencies, proximity ef-
fect may cause feedback. In this case, it is often
enough to move away fromthe microphonea little
to stop the feedback.
1. Never let more than
two persons share a
microphone.
2. The microphone is
veryinsensitiveto off-
axis sounds. If the
two vocalists were to
sing into the micro-
phone from an angle
wider than 35 de-
grees, you mayend up bringing up the fader of
the microphone channel far enough to create a
feedback problem.
1. Unscrewand removethe wire mesh cap.
2. Slip thePB 1000 onthe microphonecapsule to
the stop,slightly turningthe attachment asyou
push it home.
• When installing or removing the PB 1000,
make sure to grip the capsule and shock
mountfirmly withyour thumband forefinger
in order to prevent the capsule being sev-
eredfrom the shock mount.
