M 130 — Dynamic Double-Ribbon Microphone
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
Connection
�
The M 130 is equipped with a 3-pin XLR connector .
You can connect it to any microphone input using a
suitable microphone cable .
Caution: Carelessly laid cables are a trip hazard .
�
People can be injured and the microphone
can be damaged .
Operation
The frequency-independent figure-eight polar
�
pattern suppresses unwanted interference from
the sides . Attenuation at 90° or 270° exceeds 30 dB .
Therefore, position the microphone so that monitor
speakers and other sources of interference radiate
from the sides onto the microphone .
As the ribbons are in a vertical extension to the mi-
�
crophone shaft, the microphone should be
positioned vertically to the sound source .
The M 130 is supplied with the MA-CL 25 microphone
�
clamp for tripods with 3/8" thread . For tripods with
a 5/8" thread, you can unscrew the threaded insert .
Caution: A tripod with an insecure stand can fall
�
over and damage a microphone mounted
on it . Make sure the tripod stands stable .
MAINTENANCE
Use a soft cloth moistened with water to clean the
�
microphone shaft and grille .
�
Make sure that no water enters the microphone .
Do not use cleaning agents containing solvents .
