User manual RANE GM 16

[. . . ] GM 16 Instructions DESCRIPTION Amplifying the acoustic sound of an instrument over a sound system has been difficult. Microphones feed back, and pickups don't deliver a natural frequency response. [. . . ] If a ¼" TRS cable is used, both pickup and mic signals are kept separate on a single stereo cable. If using a mono ¼" cable, only the pickup is active. Enlarge the hole for the GM 16 with a ½" tapered reamer if needed. If the instument has a pickup, disconnect the wires from the existing jack and solder those leads to the loose set of wires protruding from the middle of the GM 16. Separate and cover the connections with electrical tape. 3. Insert the microphone assembly through the soundhole and tighten the strap button/ locknut from outside the instrument. Replace the strings and tune the guitar. Set the phantom power on the AP 13 to 6 volts. Connect a quality ¼" TRS to TRS cable from the instrument to the preamp. Set the front panel switch to TIP=PZO/ RING=MIC. Consult the AP 13 owners manual for further instructions. MICROPHONE PLACEMENT Position the microphone approximately ¼" beneath the soundboard near the treble side of the soundhole, with the active black face of the microphone towards the interior of the instrument (approximately towards the chest of the player). [. . . ] Experiment with combinations of mic position and equalization for best results. Specifications Type Frequency Response Pattern Impedance Sensitivity Max.
