User manual NADY SPC-25

[. . . ] SPC-25 Condenser Microphone USER GUIDE To take full advantage of the superb features of the SPC-25, and to enjoy long and trouble-free use, please read this User's Guide carefully. Congratulations on purchasing the Nady SPC-25 Condenser Microphone. The SPC-25 is designed for the most critical live sound and recording applications and is ideal for handheld vocal and mid-high frequency instrument miking. UNPACKING, INSPECTION, STORAGE AND TRANSPORT Your SPC-25 microphone was carefully packed at the factory in a carrying case designed to protect the unit during shipping. [. . . ] Thus, the cardioid pattern of the SPC-25 ensures that it will deliver only the desired audio in front of the mic, rejecting the unwanted audio from the rear, even in noisy ambient conditions with high sound pressure levels from the PA and monitor speakers. This means that feedback will be greatly minimized with the SPC-25 in all live performance miking applications. Some useful ways in which to totally eliminate annoying feedback include: experimenting with mic positions with respect to the speakers, decreasing speaker volume (whenever possible), and adjusting the equalization of the mic audio with the mixer. PRECAUTIONS AND CARE OF YOUR SPC-25 · The capsule is the heart of the condenser microphone. If it become dirty or wet, the sound will be degraded. Never spray any liquid on the microphone head.
