8 Use
8.1 General
The major advantage of a microphone that is attached to an article
of clothing, on the user's head or in their mask is that the distance
between the microphone and the user's mouth is always the same.
This ensures there is no need to worry about the microphone level
fluctuating.
The freedom of movement is preserved and hands remain free.
8.2 Tips for use
8.2.1 Positioning the microphone
The following must be taken into consideration when positioning
cardioid condenser microphones:
• The closer the microphone is positioned to the sound source,
the more low frequencies are captured.
• Cardioid condenser microphones are sensitive to body noises
and wind noises.
8.2.2 Avoiding disturbances from electrical interference
• To avoid hum or interference, route all audio lines, particularly
those connected to the microphone inputs, away from power
lines of any type.
• If you use cable ducts, be sure to use separate ducts for the
audio lines.
