Instruction

Manual

The

S1 is the result of over 30 years

experience in stage sound technology.

The design brief was simple,

build the best vocal mic in the world

How do you achieve that?

Well, you need to have a sound quality that is equal

to the  nest studio microphones; we know how to

do that!

That’s great, but for live use the microphone must

not suffer from feedback, handling or plosive noise.

It must also have a tailored response that takes

into consideration the proximity effect.

What else? It must be able to take the knocks and

bumps of the road!

The S1 does it all, and in my opinion, is the

best-looking vocal mic around!

I am so con dent in this microphone that I am

backing it with a full 5-year guarantee.

While using the S1 is quite simple, and there are

not many things you need to learn, please take

the trouble to read this manual, there are some

basic tips that will ensure you get the very best

performance from your microphone.

Usage Guidelines

While some of you will be seasoned audio pros,

I still recommend everyone read the following

before you start!

The S1 is a Phantom powered microphone. It will

not work unless you have a 48V phantom supply.

This will either come from the mixing console,

PA head or you can purchase a separate supply.

You will need a good quality low loss microphone

cable. Spend the money on a good one; it will pay

off in the long run. Keep it as short as practical for

your stage set up.

When using stage monitors,

set them up as per Figure 1.

This will direct the sound to

your ears and towards the

least responsive part of the

S1’s pick up pattern.

While P.A set up is well

beyond this manual, if you

want to get the best sound

possible with the least

problems, I can recommend

a book by the Oz Audio

legend, Duncan Fry. His book

is called ‘Live Sound Mixing’.

A quick no feedback tip, never put your hands over

the ball head. It may look cool, but it changes the

pick-up area of the mic, and can cause feedback

(see Figure 2)!

Don’t point the front of mic at the

speakers either!

While the S1 has been designed to

be taken on the road, it is a

precision device and should

be treated accordingly.

Remember, condenser

microphones do not

like moisture.

I would recommend

wiping it down after use, and keep the absorbent

crystals that are supplied with your S1, in the zip

pouch with the mic. They absorb moisture and can

be used many times by simply drying them out in

the oven. When the crystals have turned pink, its

time to dry them out again.

Usage Guidelines

con’t

The ball head of the S1 is an engineering marvel.

Made up of  ve separate mesh screens the outer

is heat-treated steel, which has been bead-blasted

and nickel-plated. Internally we have stainless

steel meshes as well as a  nal nylon mesh. These

 lters are design to remove vocal plosives, while not

affecting the frequency response.

The mesh head can be unscrewed and washed in

soap and water. Please fully dry the head before re

assembly and be sure to take care with the mic once

the head has been removed.

We hope the information we have provided helps

you get the best from your microphone. If you
