Recording Modes

We’ve built four different recording modes into your DGT 650 to make it the most versatile USB microphone
in the world, serving you as a true digital multi-tool. Since we’ll need to refer to those different modes later on
in this user manual (and because we think they’re really cool), we’d like to briefly introduce them to you here:

XY Stereo Mode

//

Two cardioid capsules with 90° opening for XY stereo recording. Use this mode for recor-

ding live concerts, band rehearsals, ambient sounds, background vocals and for similar applications where you
want to capture the room sound and the stereo image of any acoustic event.

Cardioid Mode

//

The two capsules are mixed together to create a cardioid pattern. Best used for vocal recor-

ding or other applications where you need good rear and side rejection.

Singer/Songwriter Mode

//

Channel 1 is the cardioid mic and channel 2 is the line input. Use this mode for

simultaneous recording of acoustic and line sources. For example: plug in your guitar to the line input and sing
into the microphone to put the two signals on separate tracks. If you plug a stereo source into the line input, it
will be summed mono (this could possibly cause phase issues on some synthesizers).

Stereo Line-In Mode

//

Used to capture a stereo line signal. Connect a synthesizer or mixing console output

and record it directly to your device.
