4. പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ

4.1 മൈക്രോഫോൺ പ്ലേസ്മെന്റ്

The MM500U features a cardioid polar pattern, which means it primarily picks up sound from the front, minimizing noise from the sides and rear. For best results, position the microphone directly in front of the sound source, typically 6-12 inches (15-30 cm) away. Experiment with distance to find the optimal sound for your environment.

4.2 ഹെഡ്‌ഫോൺ മോണിറ്ററിംഗ്

The MM500U includes a built-in headphone output (3.5mm jack) and a dedicated volume control knob. This allows for direct, latency-free monitoring of your audio. Connect your headphones to the jack on the microphone. Use the volume knob to adjust the headphone level to a comfortable listening volume.

4.3 Monitoring Mode Switch

On the rear of the microphone, you will find a switch labeled "PLAYBACK | MONITOR".

• MONITOR Mode: In this mode, you will hear your microphone's input directly through your headphones in real-time, without any delay. This is ideal for monitoring your voice or instrument during recording or streaming.
• PLAYBACK Mode: In this mode, you will hear the audio output from your computer (e.g., instrumental tracks, system sounds) through your headphones. This is useful for listening to backing tracks while performing or for general computer audio playback.

Select the appropriate mode based on your current activity.

6. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

  • യുഎസ്ബി കേബിൾ മൈക്രോഫോണിലേക്കും കമ്പ്യൂട്ടറിലേക്കും സുരക്ഷിതമായി ബന്ധിപ്പിച്ചിട്ടുണ്ടെന്ന് ഉറപ്പാക്കുക.
  • Check your computer's sound settings to confirm the Montarbo MM500U is selected as the input device.
  • Verify that the input level (gain) for the microphone is not set to zero in your computer's sound settings or recording software.
  • നിങ്ങളുടെ കമ്പ്യൂട്ടറിലെ മറ്റൊരു USB പോർട്ടിലേക്ക് മൈക്രോഫോൺ കണക്റ്റ് ചെയ്യാൻ ശ്രമിക്കുക.
  • നിങ്ങളുടെ കമ്പ്യൂട്ടർ പുനരാരംഭിക്കുക.

  • Verify the "PLAYBACK | MONITOR" switch is in the desired position.
• വികലമായ അല്ലെങ്കിൽ നിലവാരം കുറഞ്ഞ ശബ്ദം:
  • Adjust the microphone's distance from the sound source. Too close can cause distortion, too far can result in low volume and background noise.
