  • Page 6 Polar pattern control dial • The gold dot on the face of the NT2000 indicates the front of the microphone, and the primary pick- up area for the cardioid pattern.
  • Page 7 Using the NT2000 Using the High-Pass Filter • The High-Pass Filter controls the bass frequencies. Sometimes referred to as a ‘bass cut’, this will reduce the selected bass frequency and all frequencies below that. The HPF can be adjusted by moving the middle of the three dials on the microphone.
  • Page 8 • Connect all cables before applying power to the microphone and never remove the microphone cable while the power is connected. • The NT2000 requires P48 volts or P24 volts phantom power. • If the mixer or preamp does not contain this phantom power requirement, then an external phantom power supply is needed.
  • Page 9 fi nding the preferred ‘sound’ is a matter of experimentation. Storing the NT2000 • After use the NT2000 should be removed from its shock mount, wiped with a dry, soft cloth and placed in its protective case. • Be sure to place the moisture-absorbent crystals (supplied) at the head of the microphone(s), so as to absorb any moisture present.
