How do I connect the WR-040 microphone to my amplifier?

Use a standard XLR cable to connect the microphone's XLR output to your amplifier's XLR input. Ensure the amplifier is turned off during connection.

Does the microphone require batteries?

No, the WR-040 is a dynamic microphone and does not require any batteries or external power.

What is the polar pattern of this microphone?
