5. POWER REQUIREMENTS

VoxTaker 100 USB is powered by the USB port of your device, meaning

that normally you can just plug the microphone in and get started right

away. For non-standard USB ports, a powered USB hub may be required.

The VoxTaker 100 USB is a “Plug & Play” USB device, compatible with

both Windows®and Mac®computers, without having to install any

drivers.

The VoxTaker 100 USB features a blue LED inside the microphone grill

that indicates when the microphone is powered. If the light does not

turn on after plugging the microphone in, the computer or device you

are using may not provide enough power for the VoxTaker 100 USB. If

this is the case, we recommend connecting the VoxTaker 100 USB via a

powered USB hub.

6. HOW TO USE THIS MICROPHONE

Cardioid logo on the face of VoxTaker 100 USB indicates the front of the

microphone, and the pick-up area of the cardioid pattern. Please be sure

to have this side facing the sound source you wish to record.

We strongly recommend using the supplied pop-lter for all vocal

recording. This helps in minimizing plosive sounds (like hard “P”, “B”,

“T” and “K” sounds) that produce a sudden jet of air and can cause the

capsule to overload and produce “popping” sounds. An ideal reference

is to keep a distance of 15-20 cm from the VoxTaker 100 USB with the

pop lter attached.

7. SET UP

Any level and sampling frequency adjustments to set the ideal recording

level and quality can be made from within your recording program, or

via your computer system preferences.

To adjust input level and sampling frequency from within your recording

software, refer to the manual provided by the software developer. To

manually adjust your input level and sampling frequency via your com-

puter system preferences, use the following instructions.

7.1. Adjusting the input level

1) Mac OS computer

Connect your VoxTaker Microphone to a USB Port of your computer. Be

sure that the blue LED inside the microphone grill is on. If it doesn't turn

on after plugging the microphone in, the computer may not provide

enough power for the VoxTaker 100 USB. If this is the case, we recom-

mend connecting the VoxTaker 100 USB via a powered USB hub.

Click on the Apple symbol at the top left of your screen and select

"System Preferences".

Click on “Sound” to open the sound options.

Open the “Input” tab.

From here, select “Soundsation VoxTaker100” from the list of devices,

and adjust the input level using the slider.

2) Windows computer

Connect your VoxTaker Microphone to a USB Port of your computer. Be

sure that the blue LED inside the microphone grill is on. If it doesn't turn

on after plugging the microphone in, the computer may not provide

enough power for the VoxTaker 100 USB. If this is the case, we recom-

mend connecting the VoxTaker 100 USB via a powered USB hub.

Once the microphone is connected and the internal LED is on, Windows

will automatically search for the USB driver of VoxTaker 100 USB and

install it in your computer (be sure the PC is connected to the internet).

This operation will take a few seconds. Please wait until the system

tells you that the device is ready to use in the lower right corner of the

screen.

Open the Start menu and click on "Windows Settings"

Open the "Devices" preferences from within the Windows Settings

folder.

You will see the VoxTaker 100 USB listed among the various connected

devices.

Double click on it to access device properties, and open "Recording"

tab.

Then double click on "Soundsation VoxTaker 100" to adjust the input

level using the slider.

7.2. Adjusting the sample frequency

Adjusting the sample frequency affects sound quality and the size of

audio les you're going to record. The VoxTaker 100 USB allows you to

adjust this parameter from 8kHz to 48kHz. Different values corresponds

to different applications as follow.

8,000 Hz Phone Quality

11,025 Hz Dictation Quality

16,000 Hz Recorder Quality

device.

Then open the "Format" drop-down menu to choose the appropriate

value.

2) Windows Computer

As in the input level adjustment procedure, open the Start menu, click

on "Windows Settings" and open the "Devices" preferences from within

the Windows Settings folder.

Choose VoxTaker 100 USB device and double click on it to access micro-

phone properties. Then open "Advanced" tab and choose the appropri-

ate format from the drop-down menu.
