Safety And Maintenance - SE Electronics DynaCaster Bedienungsanleitung

Tips for practical use
When using the DynaCaster at close range for speech recording, start with the DYNAMITE preamp engaged
and the Low Frequency Trim in the downward position. Begin with the High Frequency Trim in the
downward position; evaluate the high-frequency tone of your voice. If it sounds acceptable, leave it there. It
your "s" sounds are sharp and piercing, move the High Frequency Trim into the center position. If your voice
sounds muffled or unintelligible, move the High Frequency Switch into the fully upward position to boost its
presence range.
When recording instruments or a vocalist singing, you can think of the DynaCaster's switches as tone-
shaping controls. Unless Phantom power is not available, we'd generally recommend keeping the
DYNAMITE preamp engaged, as the built-in microphone preamps on a mixing console or audio interface can
introduce more noise than desirable at higher gain settings. If you're experiencing overload, i.e. your mixer's
preamp is clipping despite the gain being all the way down, then go ahead and disengage the DYNAMITE
preamp, and reintroduce gain on the mixer as needed.
Powering
Please be aware that Phantom power cannot pass through TRS connectors. A balanced microphone cable
with XLR connectors at both sides is required to provide Phantom power to a microphone.

Safety and maintenance

Cleaning the microphone
The microphone should only be cleaned with a soft cloth. Do not use any cleaning agents or aggressive
liquids.
Risk of damage
Do not connect the microphone to any power supply other than a 48V Phantom
power source. Phantom power is often integrated into both mixers and audio
interfaces, and engaged via a switch on the unit's panel. Verify that any potential
external power source is a direct substitute for integrated 48V Phantom power.
Risk of damage
Please make sure that the piece of equipment to which your microphone will be
connected fulfils the safety regulations enforced in your country and is fitted with a
ground lead.
