Setup Guide

1. Charge Microphones: Before first use, ensure both lavalier microphones are fully charged using the provided charging cable. The indicator light will show charging status.
2. Connect Receiver: Plug the Type-C receiver directly into the Type-C port of your Android smartphone or tablet. Ensure it is securely connected.
3. Power On Microphones: Press and hold the power button on each lavalier microphone to turn them on. The indicator light on the microphones will illuminate.
4. Automatic Pairing: The microphones and receiver are designed for automatic pairing. Once both are powered on and within range, they should connect automatically. The indicator light on the receiver will change to indicate a successful connection (e.g., solid green).
5. Start Recording: Open your preferred audio or video recording application on your device. The system should be recognized as an external microphone.

Operating Instructions

• Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button on each microphone for a few seconds to turn it on or off.
• Mute Function: The microphones feature a one-click mute function. Press the power button briefly during operation to mute/unmute the microphone. The indicator light may change to show mute status.
• Recording While Charging: The microphones can be used while being charged, allowing for extended recording sessions. Connect the charging cable to the microphone and a power source (e.g., power bank) while it's in use.
• Optimal Placement: For best audio quality, clip the lavalier microphone approximately 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) below your chin, centered on your clothing.
• Wireless Range: Maintain a distance of up to 20 meters (65.6 feet) between the microphones and the receiver for stable transmission. Obstacles may reduce this range.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the microphones and receiver. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Storage: Store the system in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: For optimal battery life, avoid fully discharging the microphones frequently. Charge them regularly, even if not in constant use.
• Handle with Care: Avoid dropping or subjecting the devices to strong impacts.

Troubleshooting

No Sound or Low Volume:

• Ensure the receiver is fully plugged into your device's Type-C port.
• Check if both microphones are powered on and paired (indicator lights should confirm).
• Verify that the microphones are not muted. Briefly press the power button to unmute.
• Increase the volume settings on your recording device.
• Confirm your recording app is set to use the external microphone.

Poor Sound Quality/Interference:

• Ensure you are within the optimal operating range (up to 20 meters) and minimize obstacles between the mic and receiver.
• Avoid environments with strong electromagnetic interference (e.g., near Wi-Fi routers, microwaves).
• Check microphone placement; ensure it's not rubbing against clothing.
• The omnidirectional pattern picks up sound from all directions; consider your recording environment to minimize unwanted background noise.

Microphones Not Pairing:

• Turn off both microphones and the receiver, then power them back on in sequence (receiver first, then microphones).
• Ensure microphones are sufficiently charged.
• Confirm the receiver is correctly inserted into the device.

Compatibility Issues (e.g., with iPhone):

• This system is designed for Android smartphones and tablets with a Type-C port. It is not natively compatible with Apple iPhones or iPads that use a Lightning port. For newer iPhones/iPads with USB-C, compatibility may vary and is not guaranteed without specific adapters or software.

User Tips

• Test Before Recording: Always perform a short test recording before a critical session to ensure proper connection and audio levels.
• Monitor Audio: If your device allows, use headphones to monitor the audio input during recording to catch any issues in real-time.
• Power Bank for Extended Use: For very long recording sessions, consider carrying a power bank to charge the microphones while in use, leveraging the "recording while charging" feature.
• Environment Awareness: While the M8 has ambient noise reduction, recording in a quieter environment will always yield the best results, especially with an omnidirectional microphone.
