2.Plug the XLR cable from the preamplifier into the respective audio device microphone input.

3.Switch the Mic Mute/On switch to the On position.

4.Adjust the gain level of the audio input device, if necessary.

INTERNAL HIGH-PASS FILTER

An internal high-pass filter is featured in the MX1BP. It is jump- er selectable and allows the user to alter the low frequency re- sponse of the unit. For information on how to adjust this feature, please call (800) 488-3297 and follow the recorded directions for technical data by fax. For additional technical assistance, phone Shure at (847) 866-2200. In Europe, phone 49-7131-72140.

USE WITH PHANTOM POWER

The MX1BP can also be used in situations where phantom power is available.

Phantom power may be applied with a 9 V battery in place or removed. With the battery installed, the MX1BP will silently and automatically switch to the battery reserve should phantom pow- er fail. Battery depletion will not occur while phantom power is ap- plied.
