Quiz Impression A B Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
Answer to Quiz A B Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
A B Importance of Placement Key Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
Microphone Orientation Marking During impression taking a microphone placement key must be used in order to indicate the correct orientation of the microphones. • Instruct the client to look straight ahead at a point at eye level. • Place the placement key at a horizontal position. Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
Parallel Microphone Manufacture 1 Make a marking on the investment according to marks from placement key Transport this marks to the shell Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
Parallel Microphone Manufacture 2 • Place the shell on the faceplate • Align marks on shell with guidelines on faceplate • Scratch a line around the shell Guidelines • Erase marks on shell • Mount shell after scratched line Scratched line Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
Active Microphone Matching Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
Active Microphone Matching • Danalogic use matched microphones • Digital 5000 match once with FONIX • Canta is matched with FONIX and keeps the matching updated all the time. - 1,2 dB + 0.5 dB When changing microphone(s) or hybrid remember to match with FONIX +1.2 -0.5 Coyote 1.5 Global Technical OperationsJanuary 2001
