Microphone Use and Placement

Please note that micing techniques are a matter of personal preference. These are merely guidelines to assist in the placement of the microphone to gain optimal performance.

Usage	Optimal Placement
Vocals	0 to 6 inches away, aimed directly at the sound source.
Spoken Word	5 to 10 inches away, aimed directly at the sound source.

Standard Placement & Use Guidelines

1.Always point the microphone at the desired source of sound, and away from any unwanted sources.

2.The microphone should be located close to the sound source to minimize interference from other potential sound sources.

3.Use the 3-to-1 rule when using multiple microphones. Place each microphone three times farther from other microphones as from the desired sound source.

4.Minimize over-handling of the microphone to reduce unwanted mechanical noise.
