tips for using your en·CORE 300
Your en·CORE 300 should be plugged into a mic-level input using a standard 3-pin XLR cable. The en·CORE 300
requires phantom power for proper operation and will not produce reliable, clean sound without 48 volt phantom power. The
Blue logo backlighting located at the top of the barrel will illuminate once proper phantom power has been applied, indicating the
microphone is ready for use.
The sound from your en·CORE microphone heavily relies on how you place the microphone relative to your sound
source. Generally, the closer you place the en·CORE 300 to a sound source, the higher the low frequency output,
referred to as “proximity effect”. So, if you want your vocals or instruments to have added punch, place the microphone
directly adjacent to the source. For a more natural sound, simply pull the source back from the microphone 2-4 inches.
