SINGLE DIAPHRAGM CONDENSER MICROPHONE B-5 User Manual
Low Cut-Filter and Level 3.
Attenuation (-10 dB)
The B-5 features a switchable low-cut lter that eliminates low-frequency
noise such as oor rumble. Set the switch to its middle position to activate the
low-cut lter.
For situations in which the microphone is exposed to extremely high sound
pressure levels, the B-5 features a switchable level attenuation (“pad”).
When the switch is in its “-10 dB” position, the level attenuation is activated.
When the switch is in its top-most position, the signal is not inuenced
in any way.
Microphone Installation4.
To properly attach your microphone to a microphone stand, a clamp is included.
First screw this clamp onto your stand before attaching the microphone itself.
Changing Microphone Capsules5.
When your B-5 leaves the assembly plant, it has the cardioid pickup pattern
capsule screwed onto its shaft. To loosen the capsule, hold the shaft rmly
and unscrew the capsule turning it counter-clockwise.
When installing a capsule, please make sure to handle both the capsule ◊
and the microphone shaft with attention and care to avoid damaging
the screw thread. In no situation should you ever apply excessive force.
Audio Connection6.
To connect the B-5 to your equipment, use a balanced XLR microphone cable with
the following pin assignment: Pin 1 = shielding, pin 2 = +, pin 3 = -. Since all
contact points of the B-5 are gold-plated, your microphone cable too should
feature gold-plated connectors, if possible.
