Using the Windscreens and Protective Caps
Grip the internal frame of the windscreen rmly when connecting or
removing. Do not pull on the foam itself.
• To connect, push the windscreen until it snaps into place over the
cartridge.
• To remove, pull the windscreen directly off of the cartridge.
Always use the BETA 54 with
the standard protective cap only.
Using the microphone with no
cap, or with the ltered cap, will
degrade sound quality and alter
the microphone’s polar pattern.
