POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE With the standard cardioid cartridge installed, the MX692 will pick up audio at conversational volume levels within 1.5 M (5 ft.) in a 130 degree range. As a general rule, a single microphone should be used for every two people speaking. If a tighter pickup range is required, a supercardioid cartridge may be used. 130° < 1.5M (5 FT.) English – 7

POSITIONING MULTIPLE MICROPHONES In any installation, good vocal pickup can be achieved by following the positioning rules on page 7. Maintain at least .3 m (1 ft.) separation between transmitters. If you experience transmitter interfer- ence, increase the distance between transmitters, or change the channel of one transmitter/receiver pair. For information on receiver setup and positioning, see the UC4 Wireless System user guide. English – 8
