Thank you for purchasing the MXL FR-355K lavalier microphone kit. With proper care, this micro-

phone will provide many years of satisfaction. For best results, please take a few moments to review

this literature.

General Characteristics

The microphones in the FR-355K kit were designed with high quality FET pre-amps to ensure

outstanding audio quality under even the most demanding conditions. The FR-355K lavalier micro-

phones require 48v phantom power to operate. Phantom power is available from most professional

video cameras and mixers.

The FR-355K kit contains 2 different microphones. A cardoid mic, and an omni mic. The cardoid

mic has a 8mm capsule and the omni mic a 6mm capsule. They are both supplied with foam wind-

screens and clips.

Experimentation with both positioning and selection of the most suitable microphone for any given

application is recommended, as both can have a pronounced effect upon the quality of recordings.

If for any reason you get no sound from your FR-355K microphone, please check that phantom

power is being correctly supplied.

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 recommend us-

ing Mogami® brand cable.

Care

Dust and foreign material can degrade the performance of a microphone over time so always store

the unit in a warm dry place. Remove fingerprints from the exterior with a clean dry soft cloth.
