PG SERIES MICROPHONES
Welcome to the club.
Your new PG microphone is part of a complete vocal, instrument and drum
microphone family. It's real gear for serious play. So you can amplify your
message. Capture the imagination of your audience. And make a connec-
tion with your sound. Just as artists, visionaries and social leaders across
generations and around the world have done with Shure products for more
than 75 years.
Kick Drum Microphone
Uniform cardioid pick-up pattern for maximum gain before
feedback and excellent rejection of off-axis sound.
Dynamic cartridge—simple, rugged diaphragm and coil
construction. Handles extreme volume levels without
distortion.
Smooth, tailored, extended response. Tuned to accentuate
specific types of instruments.
Microphone Care
PG microphones are built tough to excel in performance conditions, just like
legendary Shure SM and Beta microphones. The following tips will help you
get the longest life from your PG microphones:
Avoid dropping the microphone.
Keep the microphone grille securely screwed down to the handle.
Keep the microphone dry and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures
and humidity.
Clean the microphone and cable with a dry cloth when necessary.
Microphone Tips
The following suggestions will help you get the best sounding results
from your PG microphones:
For accurate sound reproduction, use one microphone per sound
source.
To avoid feedback and unwanted room noise, aim the microphone
directly toward the sound source and away from reflective sources
and loudspeakers.
For extra bass response and less room noise, work close to the
microphone.
To minimize the pickup of unwanted handling noise, avoid
excessive handling of vocal microphones.
While connecting or disconnecting the microphone, keep the
microphone switch in the "OFF" position.
Hold vocal microphones by their handles and avoid covering the
grille with your hand.

Feedback
Feedback is the ringing or howling sound caused by amplified sound from the
loudspeakers entering the microphone and being re-amplified. Use the follow-
ing steps to minimize the possibility of feedback.
Position the front of the microphone as close as possible to the sound
source you're trying to mic.
Keep the microphone as far away as possible from loudspeakers.
