Working Distance and Proximity Effect

Your voice will sound bigger and fuller, the closeryou hold the microphone to your lips. Proximityeffect is a dramatic boost of low frequenciesthat occurs when you sing into the microphonefrom less than 2 inches and gives more “body”to your voice.Moving away from the microphone will create amore distant sound as the microphone picks upmore of the other sounds in the room.

How to maintain the sound quality ofyour microphoneDust, perspiration, lipstick,moisture, etc. gradually butdramatically deteriorate anymicrophone’s sound. However,all you need to do to maintain

excellent sound for many years is clean your micregularly.Use• methylated spirits or alcohol to clean the micro-phone body and the wire-mesh cap.• 70% isopropyl alcohol or soap suds to wash thewindscreen and allow it to dry overnight. (Aninstruction sheet is included in every AKGmicrophone package.)

How to set signal levels

TRANSMITTER: Set to line level if connectedto instrument or mic level if connected tomicrophone. Set GAIN fully clockwise.Play or sing as loud as you can and watch thePeak LED.• If Peak LED flickers red occasionally, level isO.K.• If Peak LED is lit red constantly, turn GAINdown to “flickering point”.

RECEIVER:Use console metering to set receiver VOLUMEcontrol and listen for distortion.To minimize noise floor, set transmitter gain ashigh as possible and receiver volume just highenough to drive console to optimum level.

Perspiration may cause microphonesor transmitters to fail

• Do not remove the small plasticshield from the C 444 L micro-phone. The shield preventsmoisture from penetrating intothe transducer.

• Always use the transmitter with the CB 40 neoprenebag included with the Aerobics System.• Make sure the connector and antenna point to theground to keep out moisture.• If you expect to perspire heavily, slip the supplied popscreen onto the microphone, wipe the microphone dryduring breaks, and disconnect the microphone from thetransmitter after use.• After use, allow the bag, transmitter, and microphoneto dry before placing them in the packaging.

For situations where the user holds the micro-phone in his hand, e.g., interviews.

How to prevent feedback

1. Make sure to place the speakers in front of theuser, i.e., in front of the microphone. This willdramatically improve usable system gain beforefeedback sets in.

2. Reducing the distance between the user’smouth and the microphone will also increasegain-before-feedback. In a critical situation, youcan remove the integrated microphone from thetransmitter and mount it closer to the user’smouth.

“Small and slim, it is easy to mount andeven clips on inconspicuously to a strap-less top or formal evening gown. Thebeauty of the design, however, is thedetachable microphone. … Being an omnimic, the C 407 provides a perfect voicesound even if you don’t remove it from thetransmitter.”(Sound Check 5/’02)
