General Product Description

MICROPHONES

The Co7 is the perfect choice for the performer who wants

hassle free sound – a mic that performs in high volume

situations without feedback. Built to the same standards of

EV’s N/DYM microphones, this mic’s low handling noise

also makes it ideal in critical acoustic settings.

Microphone Use and Placement

Please note that miking techniques are a matter of personal

preference. These are merely guidelines to assist in the

placement of the microphone to gain optimal performance.

Usage

Zero to six inches from the windscreen,

and on axis with microphone

Standard Placement & Use Guidelines

1.Always point the microphone at the desired source of

sound, and away from any unwanted sources.

2.The microphone should be located close to the sound

source to minimize interference from other potential

sound sources.

3. Use the 3-to-1 rule when using multiple microphones.

Place each microphone three times farther from other

microphones as from the desired sound source.

4. Minimize over-handling of the microphone to reduce

unwanted mechanical noise.

5.Working close to the microphone will increase the bass

tone and also provide increased gain-before-feedback.
