User manual AKG C 419 III

[. . . ] â· With locking mini XLR connector for use with the B 29 L battery power supply, MPA III L phantom power adapter, or AKG bodypack transmitters. The C 419III is a condenser microphone and therefore needs a power supply. [. . . ] Push the mini XLR connector (1) on the microphone cable into the mini XLR socket (2) on the cable of the MPA III L (3) to the stop. (Refer to the instruction manual of the unit to which you connected your microphone. If your mixer provides no phantom power: Connect the MPA III L (3) to an optional AKG phantom power supply (4) (N 62 E, N 66 E, B 18, B 15) and use an XLR cable (5) (e. , an optional MK 9/10 from AKG) to connect the phantom power supply (4) to the desired balanced input. The best way to get the ultimate sound is to experiment with various microphone positions. The following sections describe proven techniques that you may want to use as starting points for your own experiments. For subtone playing, you might like to align the microphone with the middle of the bell. Be prepared, though, to get a lot of wind noise along with the saxophone sound. You can reduce excessive key noise by placing a narrow strip of foam between the microphone clamp and the instrument. Since the clarinet radiates low frequencies through the keys and high frequencies through the bell only, we recommend to use two microphones: 1. Alternative technique: If you do not wand to use an extra stand-mounted microphone, you can use a single C 419III instead: 1. Clamp the microphone on the bell so that the microphone will look at the outside of the clarinet. [. . . ] Phantom power supply: connect to power outlet or insert battery (batteries).
