SAMSON Q1
Instrukcja Obsługi

� Withstands high SPLs lending itself to a wide range of miking situations � Ultra sensitive element picks up all of the nuances of any performance � Accepts a wide variety of phantom power source voltages from 11 to 52 Vdc

Microphone Placement and Tone Quality Listed are some common microphone placement techniques. Use these suggestions as a guide and let your ears determine what works best in your situation. � Sound source less than 6 inches away from mic�Full sound, pronounced bass, increased isolation from background noise. � Sound source 6 inches to 2 feet away from mic.�Balanced natural sound, less bass, some background noise. � Sound source 3 to 6 feet away. from mic�Thinner ambient sound.

Guidelines for Microphone Use � Aim the microphone at the desired source. Keep unwanted sound sources at a 135° angle from the front of the microphone (see polar pattern). � Place the microphone as close to the sound source as possible. � Use the proximity effect to your advantage. The closer the mic is to the sound source, the more emphasized the bass response will be. � Use a windscreen to suppress unwanted wind noise. � Never cup your hand over the microphone grill.

Operating Notes � The Q1 requires phantom power to operate. This is supplied to the microphone via the XLR cable when connected to preamplifiers, mixers, or consoles with built-in phantom power. The Q1 will operate with phantom power sources between 11 to 52 Vdc. � The Q1 will boost bass frequencies when the microphone is between 0�6 inches from the sound source. As you move the sound source further away from the microphone, the bass response will gradually roll off. � The Q1 has a built-in wind screen which protects against most wind and breathing noise. Under adverse conditions, such as high winds, an optional foam windscreen can be used. � For maximum signal handling capability and minimal distortion, a minimum load impedance of 800 ohms should be used. A reduction in output signal strength and output clipping level will result with the load at 150 ohms.
