Note: Location and room acoustics strongly affect the sound quality of microphones. To achieve the best overall sound for
a particular application, it may be necessary to experiment with microphone placement and room treatments.
Avoiding Pickup of Unwanted Sound Sources
A supercardioid microphone has the greatest sound rejection at points 120° toward the rear of the microphone. Place the mi-
crophone so that unwanted sound sources, such as monitors and loudspeakers, are at these angles, not directly behind it. To
minimize feedback and ensure optimum rejection of unwanted sound, always test microphone placement before a perfor-
mance.
Recommended Loudspeaker Locations for Supercardioid Microphones
Stand Adapter
Thread the supplied stand adapter onto a floor or boom stand, then thread the microphone onto the adapter.
NOTE: To reduce low-frequency vibrations transmitted through the stand, use an isolating shock mount. Visit www.shure.com
for more information.
Positioning the Microphone
The front of the microphone is marked by the Shure logo. Position this side toward the sound source.
