Thank you for purchasing the MXL FR Series shotgun microphone. With

proper care, this microphone will provide many years of satisfaction. For best

results, please take a few moments to review this literature.

General Characteristics

The MXL FR Series shotgun microphones have been designed with high

quality FET pre-amps, to ensure outstanding audio quality under even the most

demanding conditions. The microphones body is precision made from high

quality Aluminum for durability as well as audio quality. The MXL FR series

shotgun microphones require phantom power of 9 – 52 volts. (Available from

most professional video cameras and mixers.)

If you get no sound from your MXL FR series microphone, please check that

your camera or mixer is supplying appropriate phantom power. In addition, a

different microphone cable should be tried in the case of the the FR-300, or

FR-301.

Your MXL FR series shotgun microphone is supplied complete with the

HSM-01 hot shoe mount to enable ease of mounting on most video cameras. In

addition, a foam windscreen is provided for use in windy environments.

Microphone Cables

The microphone cable can have a profound effect on the sound of any

microphone. Even the finest microphones will sound poor if the interconnect

cable allows noise to enter, or causes distortion and loss of information. Use

only the best microphone cable your budget will allow. We recommend using

Mogami® brand cable. (Please note, the MXL FR-303 incorporates a captive

high quality cable already installed.)

Care

Dust and foreign material can degrade the performance of a microphone over

time so always store the unit in a warm dry place. Remove fingerprints from the

exterior with a clean, dry soft cloth.
