Thank you for purchasing the MXL V67 Condenser Microphone. With proper care, this mic will provide
many years of satisfaction. For best results, please take a few moments to review this literature.
General Characteristics
This microphone has a one-inch gold sputtered diaphragm and a fairly wide fixed cardioid pickup pattern.
Large capsule condensers are very sensitive, readily revealing very subtle sonic details. They also tend to
pick up sounds outside the pattern more than some designs, which can lead to powerful feedback if you are
not careful. We strongly advise experimentation with placement and isolation requirements with the gain
initially set low to avoid equipment (and ear) damaging surprises!
Power Requirements
IMPORTANT - This unit requires phantom power at 48 volts, +/- 4 volts. Each unit has been thoroughly
checked before shipping, so if you hear no sound, check that the phantom power on your mixer or separate
power supply is switched on!
Isolation Mount
The optional MXL57 shock mount can shift in shipment. Simply shift the nylon bands to center the
microphone in the assembly. Be sure that the wire clamp does not rest on the chassis of the mount, as this
impairs mechanical isolation. Slide the mount all the way to the rim of the microphone for the most secure
hold.
Microphone Cables
The microphone cable can have a profound effect on the sound of any microphone. Even the finest
microphones will sound poor if the interconnect cable allows noise to enter, or causes distortion and loss of
information. Use only the best microphone cable your budget will allow.
Care
Dust and foreign material can degrade the performance of a microphone over time so always store the unit
in its case. For vocals closer than 3”, use a “popper stopper” or a foam windscreen to avoid getting moisture
on the diaphragm as this can substantially degrade the microphone’s performance. Store the microphone in
its original packaging, or the included zipper pouch.
