4.1 Microphone Placement and Pickup Pattern

The PD100U is an end-address dynamic microphone with a cardioid polar pattern. This design focuses audio capture directly from the front of the microphone, minimizing sound from the sides and rear.

• Position the microphone so that you are speaking directly into the top (end) of the microphone.
• For optimal sound quality and to reduce plosives, maintain a distance of 2-4 inches from the microphone.
• The built-in double-layer pop filter helps to reduce harsh plosive sounds (P's and B's).

4.2 Adjusting Gain

The microphone features a gain knob for adjusting the input sensitivity and volume during recording or streaming.

• Turn the gain down: This can effectively reduce the pickup of room noise and background sounds.
• Turn the gain up: This increases the microphone's sensitivity, making your voice more prominent and attractive.
• Adjust the gain to a level that provides clear audio without clipping or distortion.
