Thank you for purchasing your MXL BCC-1 Broadcast Condenser Microphone. Designed in our world class engineering facilities in
California with the professional broadcaster in mind the BCC-1 has been designed to provide you with outstanding performance and
exceptional value. The BCC-1 is an end address microphone featuring an internally shock mounted 22mm 6 micron capsule.
In addition the microphone features a switchable high pass filter (roll off) set at -6db octave at 150hz, this is useful for removing low
frequency noise from for example air conditioning units as well as providing some reduction in proximity effect if required.
Power Requirements
IMPORTANT: This microphone requires phantom power at 48volts, +/- 4 volts. Each microphone has been thoroughly checked
before shipping, so if you do not hear sound, check that phantom power on your mixer, preamp or separate power supply is switched
on.
Microphone Cables
The microphone cable can have a profound effect on the sound of any microphone. Even the finest microphones will sound poor if the
interconnect cable allows noise to enter or causes distortion and loss of information. Use only the best microphone cable your budget
will allow. We highly recommend using Mogami® brand cable.
Care
Dust and foreign material can serious degrade the performance of a microphone over time so always store the unit in a warm dry place.
To remove fingerprints from the exterior use a clean dry soft cloth.
Warranty
Marshall microphones are guaranteed against defects in material and workmanship for three years from date of purchase. Should you
encounter any problem with this unit, promptly contact the company you purchased it from for assistance. The original dated sales
receipt will be necessary for any warranty claim. Do not send any unit directly to us without prior authorization from our service
department! Warranty coverage is limited to repair or replacement (at our option) of the microphone, and does not cover incidental
damages due to use of this unit, nor damage caused by accidental misuse of this product.
