Using a Sensing Mic
Consider the following before placing a sensing mic:
•
Use the same type of mic for program and sensing applications.
•
Place the sensing mic in the same area, and pointing in the same direction as the
program mics.
This samples, as closely as possible, the ambient sound picked up by the program
mics.
•
Do not place the sensing mic close to an individual voice or instrument.

Do not point the sensing mic at a pit orchestra.

Do not put the sensing mic in the back of the house because of the time delay.
