Setup Guide

1. Attaching the Microphone

1. Carefully insert the Movo VXR10 microphone into the red shock mount. Ensure it is securely seated to minimize vibrations.
2. Attach the shock mount to your camera's hot shoe or cold shoe mount. For smartphone rigs, use a compatible cold shoe adapter (not included).

2. Connecting to Devices

The VXR10 comes with two types of 3.5mm cables for different devices:

• 3.5mm TRS Output Cable: Use this cable for DSLR cameras, camcorders, and audio recorders. Plug one end into the microphone and the other into your device's 3.5mm microphone input jack.
• 3.5mm TRRS Output Cable: Use this cable for smartphones, tablets, and Mac computers. Plug one end into the microphone and the other into your device's 3.5mm headphone/microphone combo jack.

Note for Smartphones: Depending on your smartphone model, a Lightning or USB-C dongle/adapter may be required (not included) if your device does not have a 3.5mm jack.

Operating Your Movo VXR10

Optimal Usage

• Distance: The ideal distance range for the VXR10 is between 1-foot and 5-feet away from the sound source. Closer use may result in audio peaking, and further distances may result in muffled audio.
• Windscreen: For outdoor recording or in windy conditions, always use the included furry "Deadcat" windscreen to effectively reduce wind noise and ensure clear audio.
• Battery-Free Operation: The VXR10 does not require batteries. It draws power directly from your connected device through the audio cable (plug-in power).

Recording Tips

• Ensure your device's audio input settings are correctly configured to use an external microphone.
• Monitor your audio levels during recording, if your device allows, to prevent clipping or distortion.
• Test your setup with a short recording before important sessions to confirm optimal sound quality.

• Storage: When not in use, store the microphone and its accessories in the provided soft carrying pouch to protect them from dust, dirt, and physical damage.
• Handling: Handle the microphone and shock mount with care. While durable, excessive force can cause damage.
• Environment: Avoid exposing the microphone to extreme temperatures, high humidity, or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
