Using this Aston Spirit microphone bundle is a breeze. First, attach the shock mount to a mic stand. Then, place the microphone securely in the shock mount. Next, install the pop filter in front of the microphone to reduce popping sounds. When recording vocals, position the microphone about 6 - 12 inches away from your mouth. For instruments, adjust the distance based on the sound you want. Remember to turn on the phantom power if your audio interface requires it. As for the pad switches, use the - 20dB or - 10dB setting when recording loud sound sources to prevent distortion. The low - cut filter can be turned on to reduce unwanted low - frequency noise. When you're done using the microphone, turn off the power and unplug it. Store the microphone in a dry, clean place. Keep the shock mount and pop filter clean by gently wiping them with a soft cloth. If the microphone gets dirty, use a slightly damp cloth to clean the exterior, but avoid getting moisture inside. This will help keep your microphone in great shape for years of high - quality recordings.
