Operating the Go Mic

The Go Mic features two switchable pickup patterns, allowing you to optimize its performance for different recording scenarios:

• Kardioidní vzorec: This pattern captures sound primarily from the front of the microphone, rejecting sound from the sides and rear. It is ideal for individual podcasts, streaming, or voiceovers where you want to focus on a single speaker and minimize background noise.
• Omnidirectional Pattern: This pattern picks up sound equally from all directions (360-degree coverage). It is best suited for recording group discussions, conference calls, or capturing ambient sounds where you need to record audio from multiple sources around the microphone.

To switch between patterns, locate the small switch on the side of the microphone and slide it to your desired setting (Cardioid or Omni).

• Skladování: When not in use, store the Go Mic in its included carry case to protect it from dust, dirt, and physical damage.
• Zacházení: Handle the microphone with care. Avoid dropping it or subjecting it to excessive force.
