Shure Microflex MX200 Series Gebrauchsanleitung

GENERAL
Shure Microflex® MX200 Series microphones are miniature
electret condenser microphones designed for miking choirs and
performance groups. They are typically suspended over the heads
of the performers. Their high sensitivity and wide frequency range
make them suitable for recording, as well as sound reinforcement
applications. An attached 101 mm (4 in.) gooseneck allows them
to be easily aimed at the sound source.
FEATURES
• Wide dynamic range and frequency response for accurate sound
reproduction across the audio spectrum
• Interchangeable cartridges that provide an optimal polar pattern
choice for each application
• Supplied stand-mount adapter for portable applications (in-line
preamplifier versions only)
• White or black finish that blends unobtrusively with most
surroundings
• New RF filtering
Application
Sound reinforcement for
choirs or theater
Ambience recording or
remote monitoring of speech
and vocals
MICROPHONE INSTALLATION (Figure 2)
The microphone is most stable when the gooseneck is bent into a
"lazy S" shape as shown in Figure 2. Use the supplied hanging clip
and heavy thread or monofilament fishing line to suspend the
microphone at a specific location.

VARIATIONS
All Microflex microphones are available with any one of three
interchangeable cartridges. The polar pattern of the cartridge is
indicated by the model number suffix:
C = Cardioid, S = Supercardioid, O= Omnidirectional
• MX202B/C, S, O: Black mini-condenser microphone; includes
cable, in-line preamplifier, and stand adapter.
• MX202W/C, S, O: White mini-condenser microphone; includes
cable, in-line preamplifier, and stand adapter.
• MX202BP/C, S, O: Black mini-condenser microphone; includes
cable and plate-mounted preamplifier.
Cardioid (C). Recommended for general sound reinforcement
applications. Pickup angle (-3 dB) = 130°.
Supercardioid (S). Recommended for sound reinforcement
applications requiring narrow or more distant coverage. Pickup
angle (-3 dB) = 115°.
Omnidirectional (O). Recommended for recording or remote
monitoring applications. Pickup angle = 360°.
GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES (Figure 1)
1. For choir installations, hang a microphone 0.6 to 0.9 m (2 to
3 ft.) in front of the first row, and 0.6 to 0.9 m (2 to 3 ft.) higher
than the heads of the singers in the last row. Aim the micro-
phone at the back row.
2. When miking groups that move or vary in size, use a boom
stand and the supplied stand adapter.
3. If four or more microphones will be open at once, an automatic
mixer, such as the Shure SCM810 or FP410, is recom-
mended. Set up the automatic mixer so that all overhead
microphones gate on simultaneously.
