Pokyny pro nastavení

    • For stand mounting, use the provided Mic Clip Stand Mount.
  2. Připojení mikrofonu:
    • Connect the microphone to your recording device (camera, audio recorder, mixer) using the supplied 2’ (61cm) Female to Male XLR Cable. Ensure a secure connection.
  3. Napájení mikrofonu:
    • The SoundBird T3 can be powered by its internal rechargeable Li-Ion battery or by external 48V phantom power from your recording device.
    • To use the internal battery, press the illuminated On/Off button. The button's color indicates the power source and battery level.
    • If your device provides phantom power, the microphone will automatically switch to phantom power when connected, conserving the internal battery.
  4. Nabíjení interní baterie:
    • Use the MicroUSB to USB-A Charging Cable to charge the internal Li-Ion battery. Connect the MicroUSB end to the microphone and the USB-A end to a compatible USB power source.
    • Plné nabití poskytuje až 150 hodin provozu.
  5. Attaching the Foam Windscreen:
    • Slide the foam windscreen over the microphone head to reduce wind noise and plosives during recording.

Návod k obsluze

The SoundBird T3 features illuminated buttons for various audio adjustments:

  • Tlačítko zapnutí/vypnutí: Press to power the microphone on or off. The illumination indicates power status and battery level.
    • Zelený: Sufficient battery/Phantom power.
    • Žlutá: Slabá baterie.
    • Červený: Very low battery, recharge soon.
  • Nízkořezný filtr: Activates a low-cut filter to reduce unwanted low-frequency sounds such as rumble from air conditioners, traffic, or footsteps. Press the button to toggle this feature.
  • High-Boost: Engages a high-frequency boost. This feature is useful for restoring high frequencies that may be attenuated by wind protection (like the foam windscreen) and can enhance vocal intelligibility. Press the button to toggle this feature.
  • -10dB podložka: Applies a -10dB attenuation pad. Use this setting when recording very loud sound sources to prevent distortion and clipping. Press the button to toggle this feature.
