Low-Cut Switch
The Low-Cut Switch is located on the front-right side of the
microphone. Wind noise, plosives, footfall noise or rumble
might affect the recorded signal, so enabling the switchable
low cut filter reduces such unwanted noise and prevents
distortion. Additionally, the low cut filter also minimizes the
proximity effect when recording sound sources at a very
short distance.
Powering
In order to ensure proper operation, the microphone requires a phantom power source providing 48
Volts according to IEC 61938.
Safety and maintenance
Cleaning the microphone
After every use, clean the microphone with a dry, soft cloth tissue and store it in a solid case or a
zipper pouch.

Risk of damage
Do not connect the microphone to any power supply other than a
phantom power source (input with phantom power or external IEC
standard phantom power supply) with a floating connector, using a
balanced cable with studio grade connectors to IEC 268-12 only. This
is the only way to ensure safe and reliable operation.
Risk of damage
Please make sure that the piece of equipment to which your
microphone will be connected fulfils the safety regulations enforced in
your country and is fitted with a ground lead.
