Volume Control - Shure 520DX GREEN BULLET Guia Del Usuario

GENERAL
Contoured to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand,
the Model 520DX "Green Bullet" microphone produces the
unique sound that has made it a legend among harmonica
players.
The 520DX features a volume control knob at the base
of the microphone (see Figure 1) that allows musicians to
make adjustments to suit their needs during a live perfor-
mance. An attached cable with a standard 1/4-inch phone
plug allows the microphone to be connected to a high-imped-
ance device.
APPLICATIONS
Connect the 520DX directly into a guitar amplifier to
produce the classic blues harp sound. Use the following
guidelines:
S
The volume control on the microphone should be turned
down before plugging it into an amplifier. As you move
away from the amplifier, the volume can be turned up.
S
Adjust the microphone's volume control knob during
performances as needed. For example, when switching
from playing rhythm to lead or to place the microphone
on standby between sets.
S
To avoid feedback, maintain as much distance as pos-
sible from monitors or loudspeakers. Adjust the volume
of monitors or loudspeakers at the mixing console so
that no feedback is present when the volume control
knob on the harmonica microphone is at its maximum
setting.
NOTE: The volume setting of the guitar amplifier may have
a significant effect on the overall tone produced. Experiment
with different microphone and amplifier volume settings to
achieve the desired effect.
