The DE10x and DE50x both feature an omnidirectional pickup pattern that delivers linear off-axis frequency response, resulting in a clear and articulate sound perfect for broadcast, worship, presentation, theater and fitness applications. The DE60x has a unidirectional pickup pattern, which provides superb isolation, resulting in more gain before feedback with clear and articulate sound in live sound applications. The DEx headset microphones includes four detachable adapter cables: 1/8” [3.5mm], Hirose® 4-Pin, Switchcraft® TA3F, Switchcraft® TA4F for compatibility with Samson wireless as well as most popular wireless transmitters. The pack includes four windscreens, a collar clip and protective carry case. The DEx microphones have gold-plated connectors, moisture-resistant coating and stainless steel mesh grille. They are dust and water/sweat-resistant rated at IP65. In addition, there is a moisture guard drip-ring to further protect the capsule and ensure reliable performance. If you have any questions or comments regarding the DEx Headset Microphone or any other products from Samson, do no hesitate to contact us at [e-mail]. Introduction4 The headset can be re-sized by sliding the ear hooks to fit snug around your head. If the headset is loose and will not stay in place, slide the ear hook wires back for a tighter fit. Adjust the microphone position by holding the left ear hook wire and slide the boom forward or back. For optimum performance the microphone should be close to the skin and towards the corner of the mouth, approximately a half inch away. Position the moisture guard ring as close to the capsule as possible. For outdoor use and to help reduce p-popping, install one of the included windscreens.

wireless systems6 To connect the cable to the headset:

1. Choose the right cable and connector that

works with your wireless system.

2. Line the cable up to the threaded terminal

on the back of the DE10x/DE50x/DE60x and screw the cable into the headset. Do not over tighten the cable.

3. Attach the included collar clip on the back

of your shirt collar and run the mic wire from the DEx headset to the wireless body pack. Leave enough cable to allow you to turn your head from side to side. Connector Cables7DE10x/DE50x/DE60x Headset Microphones ENFRDEESIT Mic Positioning Position the DE60x microphone element about 0.25” –1” behind the corner of your mouth. Since the DE60x is a unidirectional capsule, the low frequency characteristics will change depending on the position of the microphone from the sound source. The DE10x and DE50x are omnidirectional capsules and can be placed further away from your mouth. However, if the microphone is too far away from your mouth you will need to increase the gain and reduce isolation. Do not place the microphone directly in front of your mouth in order to avoid breath noise and p-pops. To minimize additional noise, do not locate the microphone tight against your cheek.8 Specifications DE10x Element Back electret condenser Polar pattern Omnidirectional Frequency Response 20Hz–20KHz Sensitivity -45dBV/Pa @1kHz ±3dB Output impedance 2kΩ ±30% Maximum SPL 130dB Self-Noise 30dB(A) Dynamic Range 100dB Operating voltage 1.5–12V DC Cable ø1.4mm*1.2m Weight: 13g Capsule Dimension ø3mm Included Adapter Cables 1/8” (3.5mm), Hirose
