INFORMATIONS DE PRODUIT3

Thank you for selecting the MC 910 / 930 / 950 condenser microphone from beyerdynamic. Please take some time to read carefully through this information before using the microphone. Safety Information

• Protect the microphone from moisture and sudden impacts. You could either injure yourself or others or damage the microphone.

• Do not blow into the microphone. In a condenser microphone this could damage the transformer. It is preferable to carry out a speech trial.

• When using wired microphones always ensure that the microphone cable is laid so that it does not present a trip hazard. Application Applications for the MC 910 / 930 / 950 include broad- casting, recording and film studios and on stage. The microphones are suitable for miking choirs, solos, wood- wind and brass instruments, piano and string instruments or for overheads on drums. When the microphones are used outdoors or for close miking, we recommend using the WS 101 wind shield which can be fitted on the microphone. Connection The MC 910 / 930 / 950 provide a 3-pin XLR connector and can be connected to any microphone input with phantom power supply (11 - 52 V). For connecting cables, please refer to “Optional Accessories”. Installation As supplied the MC 910 / 930 / 950 include the MKV 9 microphone clamp for stands with 3/8" thread. For stands with a 5/8" thread, the thread adapter can be unscrewed using a small coin. To attach to the swivelling MKV 9 the MC 910 / 930 / 950 should be pressed between the two elastic jaws of the clamp.11 english How to select the Pre-attenuation For higher sound pressure levels a pre-attenuation of 15 dB can be applied with the right slide switch on the front of the microphones (imprint: -15 dB). How to select the Low-cut Filter If a directional microphone (pressure gradient) is used for close vocal miking the low frequencies are pre-emphasised; this is known as proximity effect. To compensate this effect, the MC 930 and MC 950 provide a switchable low-cut filter on the front (left) below 250 Hz with 6 dB/octave. With the MC 910 the sound characteristic of the microphone can be changed with this switch. Maintenance For cleaning metal surfaces, use a soft, damp cloth using only gentle cleansing agents (such as washing-up liquid). Make sure that no water drops into the microphone and do not use any solvent cleansers. Clean the WS 101 wind shield in clear, warm water. It should be completely dry, before it is used again. Service Servicing must be carried out by qualified service personnel only. Dismantling the microphone yourself will invalidate the guarantee.
