SUPERCARDIOID CONDENSER DUAL GOOSENECK LECTERN MICROPHONES

he Crown® LM-300A, LM-300AL and TLM-301A are dual gooseneck micro-

phones for lecterns, pulpits or similar ap- plications. Each professional quality mic is an electret condenser type with a super- cardioid pickup pattern.

The LM-300A has a built-in electronics module with an XLR connector. It plugs directly into

a female 3-pin XLR-type panel connector. The LM-300AL is the same but with a 4-3/4-inch longer boom arm.

The LM-301A has a built-in 5/8-inch (15.88- mm)-27 threaded collar that can be screwed onto a mic stand, mic boom or an Atlas AD-12 male flange. Because of the unique design of the mounting collar, the mic cable can be rout- ed either outside or inside the mounting collar. The LM-301A comes in two parts: microphone/ cable and a cylindrical electronics housing.

Because of their supercardioid pickup pattern, these microphones reject more background noise, room reverberation, and feedback than a typical cardioid microphone.

The LM Series have a smooth, wide-range fre- quency response for natural reproduction of the singing or speaking voice. Very low frequencies are filtered out to reduce pickup of mechanically induced noise, room rumble, etc. The goose- neck adjusts silently.

Supplied with the microphone is the WS-9, a highly effective foam pop filter. Its two-stage design greatly reduces explosive breath sounds. A low-cut switch built into the electronics hous- ing further reduces breath pops and handling noise.

The microphone output is a male 3-pin XLR- type connector and is balanced, low impedance, which allows long cable runs without hum pickup or high-frequency loss. Superior RFI protection is also provided.

LM-301A Operating Instructions

Please refer to Fig. 3, LM-301A, to identify the parts mentioned.

1.To route the mic cable inside the mounting device: remove the TA3F connector, push the collar up onto the gooseneck and pull the cable down through the collar. Reattach TA3F.

2.To route the mic cable outside the mounting device: remove the TA3F connector, push the collar up onto the gooseneck, route the end of the cable inside the collar and slot and pull the cable up through the collar and slot. Reattach TA3F. (Continued on back)
