Mic 5 Bass Management Kit | Velodyne Acoustics MIC-5 specification

Mic - 5 Bass Management Kit

The MIC-5 Bass Management Kit is designed to integrate with the Velodyne Digital Drive® and SPL™ -R EQ software for users looking to optimize their bass response for more than one spot in a room. In the past, with a single microphone, the user needed to either optimize the bass for a single position, or move the mic manually among various spots and optimize the EQ curve accordingly. With the MIC-5, from one to five microphones can be used in different listening positions with the EQ software seeing an average of all the locations together as a single response curve.

The MIC-5 works with all Digital Drive (DD) subwoofers including the DD-10, DD-12, DD-15, DD-18 and the DD-1812. It also can be used with all SPL-R subwoofers including the SPL-800R, the SPL-1000R, the SPL-1200R and the SPL-1500R. It also works with the Digital Drive SMS™-1.

The MIC-5 comes complete with:

•MIC-5 hub

•Five high precision microphones with stands and windscreens

•Five 6-foot XLR mic cables

•One 20-foot XLR mic cable for use with Digital Drive systems including the SMS-1

•One 20-foot microphone cable (mini-jack) for use with SPL-R subwoofers

•Carrying case

To use the MIC-5, simply install the mics in their stands, place them in the desired listening positions, and connect them to the MIC-5 hub using the included 6-foot XLR microphone cables. Select the number of microphones to be used by pressing the button on the MIC-5 hub until the appropriate number of microphones is indicated. Use the appropriate long microphone cable to connect to the Digital Drive subwoofer, SPL-R subwoofer, or SMS-1. Then use the Digital Drive or SPL-R equalization software normally as indicated in the user’s manual.

The MIC-5 uses two 9-volt batteries (included). The low-battery light indicates the need for new batteries.
