POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE
IMPORTANT: For maximum gain before feedback, position the gooseneck so
that the microphone grille (silver side) is within 25 mm (1 inch) of the right corner
of the mouth. Do NOT position it directly in front of the mouth (see Figure 3).
USING THE CLOTHING CLIP
The supplied spring-loaded clothing clip secures the microphone cable to the user's cloth-
ing and keeps it from becoming entangled with the user's movements.
OPERATION
Connect the WH20 to the microphone input of a wireless microphone transmitter or a bal-
anced wired microphone input.
NOTE: The WH20 is a dynamic microphone and has inherently lower output
than condenser microphones. The transmitter gain may need to be increased to
compensate for the WH20's lower output.
WINDSCREEN
If breath noise or “popping” is audible over the sound system, install the supplied
windscreen.
WASHING THE FOAM WINDSCREEN
The foam windscreen protects the WH20's microphone-element from dirt and moisture.
When necessary, it can be removed and cleaned in a mild soapy water solution.
IMPORTANT: Never clean the windscreen with any liquid solution without first
removing the windscreen from the microphone boom.
1. Gently pull the windscreen away from microphone.
2. Immerse the windscreen in mild soapy water and gently squeeze it several times.
3. Rinse the windscreen in clean water and dry it with a clean cloth or paper towel. Allow it to air-dry
thoroughly.
4. When the windscreen is dry, slide it over the WH20 microphone.
