Sąrankos instrukcijos

1. Mikrofono montavimas: Securely attach the Neumann TLM 103-MT microphone to a suitable microphone stand using its integrated mount. Ensure the microphone is stable and positioned correctly for your recording needs.
2. Kabelio prijungimas: Connect one end of the Pig Hog PHM10 XLR microphone cable to the XLR output port at the base of the TLM 103-MT microphone. Connect the other end of the XLR cable to an audio interface, mixer, or preamplifier that provides 48V phantom power. The TLM 103-MT requires phantom power to operate.
3. Attaching the Pop Filter: Mount the pop filter to the microphone stand. Position the pop filter approximately 2-6 inches (5-15 cm) in front of the microphone capsule. This helps to reduce plosive sounds (P, B, T, K) and protect the microphone from moisture.
4. Įjungimas: Once all connections are secure, activate the 48V phantom power on your audio interface, mixer, or preamplifier. The microphone will then be ready for use.
