Positioning the microphones

The ME 3 and ME 4 microphones are directional microphones, i.e. their sound inlet should always be directed towards the sound source (e.g. mouth).

The ME 2 with omni-directional pick-up pattern picks up sound equally from all directions. It is the best choice if movements of the speaker’s head have to be compensated for. However, it should be attached as close as possible to the sound source.

Adjust the sensitivity correctly for all microphones/usages (see “Adjusting the sensitivity” on page 53).

Attaching the transmitter to clothing

The transmitter is attached to clothing (e.g. belt, waistband) with the supplied belt clip.

The clip is detachable so that you can also attach the transmitter with the antenna pointing downwards. To do so, withdraw the clip from its fixing points and attach it the other way round.

The supplied BPP 1 bodypack pouch helps to protect the transmitter against moisture.
