4. Opsætning
Follow these steps to set up your TELEFUNKEN M81 microphone:
- Fastgør mikrofonklips: Securely screw the included microphone clip onto a standard microphone stand.
- Indsæt mikrofon: Sæt forsigtigt basen af M81-mikrofonen ind i mikrofonklemmen. Sørg for, at den sidder godt fast, men brug ikke magt.
- Tilslut XLR-kabel: Connect a standard XLR (3-pin) microphone cable to the XLR output at the bottom of the M81 microphone. The M81 uses a balanced XLR connection.
- Connect to Audio Interface/Mixer: Connect the other end of the XLR cable to an available microphone input on your audio interface, mixing console, or preamplifier. Ensure the input is set to accept a dynamic microphone signal (phantom power is not required and should be off for dynamic microphones).
- Placering: Position the microphone appropriately for your sound source. The supercardioid polar pattern is most sensitive directly in front of the microphone, rejecting sounds from the sides and rear.

5. Betjening
The TELEFUNKEN M81 is designed for ease of use and high performance. Here are some guidelines for optimal operation:
- Få Staging: Adjust the gain on your audio interface or mixer to achieve a healthy signal level without clipping. Start with the gain low and gradually increase it while monitoring your audio.
- Nærhedseffekt: The M81 is designed to minimize proximity effect (an increase in bass response as the microphone gets closer to the sound source). However, you can still use subtle changes in distance to fine-tune the low-end response for vocals or instruments.
- Afvisning af feedback: Due to its supercardioid polar pattern, the M81 offers excellent rejection of off-axis sounds. This is particularly useful in live sound environments to reduce feedback. Position monitors and other sound sources outside the microphone's pickup pattern.
- Ansøgninger:
- Vokal: Position the microphone 2-6 inches from the vocalist's mouth. Experiment with angle and distance to achieve the desired tone.
- Guitar Amps: Place the microphone 1-12 inches from the speaker cone, experimenting with placement between the cone and the edge for different tonal characteristics.
- Drums (Toms): Position the microphone a few inches above the drum head, angled towards the center.
- Horns/Saxophone: Aim the microphone at the bell or keys, depending on the desired blend of sound.
6. Vedligeholdelse
