FINE TUNING
Once the V-200 is properly mounted,
plug the instrument into an amplifier
and play at a low volume. Carefully
shift the V-200 a small distance within
the slot and test using the trial and
error method, listening for the the best
location.
NOTE: If installation is to be perma-
nent, a small drop of adhesive on the
side (lower face) of the transducer can
be used.
PLUGGING IN
Due to the nature of passive pickups, the type of cable you use and the input you plug
into will affect the quality of your sound.
INSTRUMENT CABLE
Cable lengths over 10 feet (before preamp) will cause audible high frequency loss. Use
a high quality, low capacitance shielded cable. This will insure minimal tone coloration
and hum. Using fully shielded metal plugs will also help eliminate hum.
KINDS OF AUDIO INPUTS
Because of the lack of standardization for high impedance audio inputs, special attention
should be paid to what you are plugging into:
