Microphone installation7.
To attach the microphones to the microphone stands, two clamps are
included with the delivery. First screw a clamp onto the stand before
attacting the microphone itself.
Audio connection8.
Use a balanced XLR microphone cable with the following pin assignment:
pin 1 = shielding; pin 2 = +; pin 3 = -. Since your C-2 features gold-plated
contact points throughout, we recommend that you use only microphone
cables with gold-plated connectors.
Level setting / adjusting the basic sound9.
Adjust the gain control in the microphone channel of your mixing console
so that the peak LED lights up only occasionally or never at all. The EQ
controls in the microphone channel should be set to mid-travel position to
start with; low-cut lter and signal level attenunation should be switched
off. To get the sound you want, try changing the mic position relative to
the sound source or even move the microphone around in the recording
room of your studio. Adjusting the angle at which walls face the sound
source can also be helpful. Only when the desired basic sound has been
achieved, should you start to use equalizers and signal processors, if any
at all. Remember: less is often more!
