Listening Through Headphones; Troubleshooting - Shure MV51 Bedienungsanleitung

Listening Through Headphones

The MV51 is equipped with a headphone jack to allow you to monitor
audio from the computer and microphone. The signal is an equal blend
of the direct microphone signal and audio playback from the computer.
The benefit of this feature is that the headphone settings are conve-
niently located. They are easily accessed through the MV51 touch pan-
el. To adjust the amount of playback audio in this mix, use the computer
or DAW mixer settings.
Tip: When first connecting the microphone to your computer, make
sure to raise the volume level in the sound control panel of the comput-
er for a strong audio signal. Then adjust headphone level for comfort-
able monitoring.
Sampling Rate and Bit Depth
Sample Rate and Bit Depth settings are found in a drop down menu
in the audio or sound control panel of your computer. You can adjust
these variables to fit your needs. Select a lower sample rate for podcast
recording, when it is important to have a smaller file for easy download.
Select a higher sample rate for music and more dynamic recordings.
Tip: Record at a higher sample rate and bounce down to an M4A for a
file with the highest sound quality at a manageable size.
Tip for PC users: Make sure that the sample rate and bit depth micro-
phone settings, found in the sound control panel of the computer, match
with the sample rate and bit depth selected in your software.
