Basic Operation

1
Unpack the M-80. Set up the desktop stand and insert the microphone from above.
2
To switch on the microphone, set the sliding switch to ON. Point the microphone directly at the sound
source (vocalist).
3
Connect stereo headphones with 3.5 mm plug to the headphones output
system such as desktop speakers may be connected to the output.
• The headphones output provides direct monitoring of the preamplified microphone signal while
recording. If you have deactivated Direct Monitor mode (chapter Installation) and record in your DAW
with software monitoring turned on, you may experience a delay on the signal playback, commonly
know as latency.
• The buttons ▲ and ▼ control the internal headphones amplifier and thus the volume at the
headphones output. However, if you select any of your computer's internal sound cards as the output
device, the buttons ▲ and ▼ will adjust the volume of the sound card.
4
Use the supplied USB cable to connect the microphone to an available USB port on your computer. The
USB indicator lights up.
5
Check your computer's system settings to make sure the microphone was properly recognized by the
operating system (chapter Installation).
6
Open your recording software and select the M-80 as input and output device. Adjust the microphone's
analog input gain stage with your operating system or recording software and you are ready to record.
7
For live sound applications, the M-80 can also be connected to a standard mixing console. For this,
connect the microphone via an XLR cable to the XLR microphone input of your audio unit.
