Mounting Your Microphone

The M7 large-diaphragm condenser microphone and the included
shockmount and desktop microphone stand are designed to make
microphone placement quick and easy. Simply screw the shockmount
onto the top of the microphone stand and position your M7 microphone
so that it is vertical and the front of capsule is facing you.
When using the desktop mic stand included with your Music Creation Suite, the M7
should be angled back slightly to make it easier to use it from a seated position.

When singing into the M7, try to keep your mouth approximately six
inches from the microphone at all times. If you find your recordings
have excessive plosives (such as “p” or “b”) you may need to purchase
a pop filter. Pop filters can be found at most music stores.
