PRODUCT INFORMATION MC 910 / 930 / 950
Thank you for selecting the MC 910 / 930 / 950 condenser
microphone from beyerdynamic. Please take some time
to read carefully through this information before using
the microphone.
Safety Information
• Protect the microphone from moisture and sudden
impacts. You could either injure yourself or others or
damage the microphone.
• Do not blow into the microphone. In a condenser
microphone this could damage the transformer. It is
preferable to carry out a speech trial.
• When using wired microphones always ensure that
the microphone cable is laid so that it does not present
a trip hazard.
Application
Applications for the MC 910 / 930 / 950 include broad-
casting, recording and film studios and on stage. The
microphones are suitable for miking choirs, solos, wood-
wind and brass instruments, piano and string instruments
or for overheads on drums.
When the microphones are used outdoors or for close
miking, we recommend using the WS 101 wind shield
which can be fitted on the microphone.
Connection
The MC 910 / 930 / 950 provide a 3-pin XLR connector and
can be connected to any microphone input with phantom
power supply (11 - 52 V). For connecting cables, please
refer to “Optional Accessories”.
Installation
As supplied the MC 910 / 930 / 950 include the MKV 9
microphone clamp for stands with 3/8" thread. For stands
with a 5/8" thread, the thread adapter can be unscrewed
using a small coin.
To attach to the swivelling MKV 9 the MC 910 / 930 / 950
should be pressed between the two elastic jaws of the
clamp.
How to select the Pre-attenuation
For higher sound pressure levels a pre-attenuation of
15 dB can be applied with the right slide switch on the
front of the microphones (imprint: -15 dB).
How to select the Low-cut Filter
If a directional microphone (pressure gradient) is used for
close vocal miking the low frequencies are pre-emphasised;
this is known as proximity effect. To compensate this
effect, the MC 930 and MC 950 provide a switchable
low-cut filter on the front (left) below 250 Hz with
6 dB/octave. With the MC 910 the sound characteristic of
the microphone can be changed with this switch.
Maintenance
For cleaning metal surfaces, use a soft, damp cloth using
only gentle cleansing agents (such as washing-up liquid).
Make sure that no water drops into the microphone and
do not use any solvent cleansers.
Clean the WS 101 wind shield in clear, warm water. It
should be completely dry, before it is used again.
Service
Servicing must be carried out by qualified service
personnel only. Dismantling the microphone yourself will
invalidate the guarantee.
