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.
