Mounting the microphone to your clothing
Attach the microphone to the front of your clothing with the clothing clip, about 20cm (8 inches) from your face.
- Attach the microphone upside down to reduce excessive breath noises and tonal inconsistencies due to head movements.
- It is recommended that you use the foam windscreen at all times to avoid wind noise, even when recording inside.
