The MXL 770 features controls to optimize your recording quality:

• Low-Frequency Roll-Off Switch: This switch (often labeled as a high-pass filter) reduces unwanted low-frequency rumble and noise, such as air conditioning hum or foot traffic. Engage this switch when recording vocals or instruments where deep bass frequencies are not desired.
• -10дБ Pad которгучу: The -10dB pad attenuates the input signal by 10 decibels. Use this switch when recording very loud sound sources (e.g., loud vocals, guitar amplifiers, drums) to prevent signal clipping and distortion at the microphone's input stage.
