STUDIO CONDENSER MICROPHONES C‑2

To attach the microphones to the microphone stands, two clamps are

included with the delivery. First screw a clamp onto the stand before

attacting the microphone itself.

Use a balanced XLR microphone cable with the following pin assignment:

pin 1 = shielding; pin 2 = +; pin 3 = -. Since your C-2 features gold-plated

contact points throughout, we recommend that you use only microphone

cables with gold-plated connectors.

Level setting / adjusting the basic sound

Adjust the gain control in the microphone channel of your mixing console

so that the peak LED lights up only occasionally or never at all. The EQ

controls in the microphone channel should be set to mid-travel position to

start with; low-cut filter and signal level attenunation should be switched

off. To get the sound you want, try changing the mic position relative to

the sound source or even move the microphone around in the recording

room of your studio. Adjusting the angle at which walls face the sound

source can also be helpful. Only when the desired basic sound has been

achieved, should you start to use equalizers and signal processors, if any

at all. Remember: less is often more!
