Adjusting Microphone Level
Microphone level (gain) typically does not need adjustment when using the appropriate preset mode. However, if you hear dis
tortion or the audio is too low, adjust the microphone level in the Audio or Sound control panel of your computer or recording
device.
Keep the following in mind:
•
Set the microphone level before adjusting headphone volume.
•
The headphone volume does not affect the signal level sent to the computer.
•
Use the thumbwheel on the microphone to adjust headphone volume to a comfortable level. Do not change microphone
gain to adjust the headphone volume.

The headphone monitoring level is affected by the device and the computer settings level. Raise your computer volume and
easily adjust headphones through the MV5 thumbwheel.
