21 STUDIO CONDENSER MICROPHONES C-2 User Manual
Of course, you can use your microphones individually as well. A cardioid pattern capsule
is often used in recording situations in which several sound sources are present. Since this
capsule selectively tones down the pickup of sounds located to the side of the microphone,
this way you can achieve good separation of sound sources, thus easily avoiding feedback.
5. Low Cut-Filter and Signal Level
Attenuation (-10dB)
The C-2 studio microphones feature a switchable low-cut lter that lets you eliminate
low-frequency disturbances such as subsonic noise. Set the switch to its middle position to
activate the low-cut lter.
A switchable level attenuation is provided on your C-2s for applications in which the
microphones are exposed to extremely high sound pressures. When the switch is in its
“−10dB”position, the level attenuation is activated.
When the switch is in its top-most position, the signal is not inuenced in any way.
6. Microphone Installation
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.
7. Audio Connection
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.
8. 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 lter and signal level attenunation
should be switched o. 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!
