Сетуп

  1. Повежите микрофон: Plug the 1/8" TRRS jack of the iRig Mic Lav directly into the headphone/microphone jack of your smartphone, tablet, or compatible device. For devices without a 3.5mm jack, an appropriate adapter (e.g., Lightning to 3.5mm for newer iPhones, USB-C to 3.5mm for some Android devices) will be required.
  2. Обезбедите микрофон: Attach the durable mounting clip to the microphone and then clip the microphone to your clothing, ideally about 6-8 inches from your mouth, for optimal sound capture.
  3. Attach Pop Filter (Optional): For outdoor use or to reduce plosive sounds (like 'p' and 'b' sounds), gently place the included foam pop filter over the microphone capsule.
  4. Headphone Monitoring (Optional): To monitor your audio in real-time, connect headphones to the 1/8" TRRS port on the in-line connector of the iRig Mic Lav. Note that real-time monitoring requires a compatible recording application with pass-through monitoring enabled. The microphone's in-line connector does not provide direct hardware monitoring.
  5. Daisy-Chaining (Optional): To connect a second iRig Mic Lav, plug its 1/8" TRRS jack into the 1/8" TRRS port on the in-line connector of the first iRig Mic Lav. This allows for a dual microphone setup.

Одржавање

  • Чишћење: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the microphone and cables. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
  • Одржавање поп филтера: The foam pop filter can be gently cleaned with mild soap and water if it becomes dirty. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching it to the microphone.

Решавање проблема

  • Нема аудио улаза: Ensure the 1/8" TRRS jack is fully inserted into your device's port. If using an adapter, ensure the adapter is also fully connected and compatible. Check your device's audio input settings to confirm the iRig Mic Lav is selected.
  • Poor Audio Quality/Muffled Sound: Verify the microphone is positioned correctly (6-8 inches from the sound source). Ensure the foam pop filter is clean and properly attached. Check your recording app's settings for any filters or processing that might be affecting the sound.
  • No Real-time Monitoring: Real-time monitoring through the headphone jack requires a compatible recording application with a pass-through monitoring feature enabled. The iRig Mic Lav's in-line connector does not provide direct hardware monitoring. Consult your recording app's documentation for instructions on enabling this feature.
  • Daisy-Chain Issues: When daisy-chaining, ensure both iRig Mic Lav units are properly connected. Check the audio levels for each microphone within your recording application, if supported.
