sources.
Place the microphone as close as practical to the desired sound source.
Work close to the microphone for extra bass response.
Use only one microphone to pick up a single sound source.
Use the fewest number of microphones as practical.
Keep the distance between microphones at least three times the distance from each microphone to its source.
Place microphones as far as possible from reflective surfaces.
Add a windscreen when using the microphone outdoors.
Avoid excessive handling to minimize pickup of mechanical noise and vibration.
Do not cover any part of the microphone grille with your hand, as this will adversely affect microphone performance.
