1 Applications
This microphone set consists of a miniature
electret instrument microphone, a contact mi-
crophone (inside the fixing base) and a mixer
that is also used to supply the microphones
with power. The microphone set is ideally
suited for picking up the sound of string in-
struments. The mixer uses phantom power
(e. g. from a mixing console) or a 9 V battery
inserted and allows you to mix the sound of
the two microphones as desired. When the
mixer is operated via battery, the mixed signal
of the microphones can be monitored via the
headphone output.
The mixer can be attached to your clothes
via the belt clip (10) on the rear.

ure 1. Use one of the adhesive pads provided
to attach the lower surface of the base (with
the contact microphone inside) to the instru-
ment (e. g. violin, guitar, piano). Make tests to
find the ideal mounting position for the best
sound if necessary. The miniature microphone
