CONNECTING THE MICROPHONES

CAUTION!

The microphones included in the Lexicon Microphone Kit require careful handling. Dropping or otherwise physically abusing the microphones might cause errors during use or irreparable damage to the microphone.

The microphone wires also require careful handling. Do not sharply bend the wires or place objects on them.

Never make or break microphone input connections unless the MC-12 is powered off with the rear panel power switch OR standby mode is activated with the front panel or remote control standby button.

Note the following:

Automatic calibration requires the microphones included in the Lexicon Microphone Kit available at authorized Lexicon dealers. Performing automatic calibration with microphones other than those in the kit will produce unpredictable results.

Proper microphone placement is essential to achieving the desired automatic calibration results. Pay particular attention to the microphone placement instructions and illustrations included in this section.

It is important to read and observe the care and handling docu- mentation included with the Lexicon Microphone Kit to ensure optimal microphone performance.

1.Make sure the MC-12 is powered off OR in standby mode.

2.Connect the microphones included in the Lexicon Microphone Kit to the microphone input connectors on the MC-12 rear panel as shown above. Make sure the microphone cable plug is fully inserted for a solid connection.

During the microphone check, the microphones will be referred to as 1, 2, 3, and 4 based on the input connector to which the microphone is connected. You should label the microphones for troubleshooting purposes.
