2 Interfacing

The C 420 is a condenser microphone and there- fore needs a power supply.

1. Connect the phantom power adapter on the 2.1 C 420 microphone cable to a balanced XLR micro-

phone input with phantom power.

2.Switch the phantom power on. (Refer to the instruction manual of the unit to which you connected your C 420.)

3.If your mixer provides no phantom power, connect an AKG phantom power supply (N 62 E, N 66 E, B 18) between the microphone and the mixer.

You may connect AKG phantom power sup- plies to balanced or unbalanced inputs.
