Notes
If the microphone head is covered by a hand or the microphone is placed close to the speaker, a howling sound may be generated. This phenomenon of howling is caused by the microphone picking up the sound output from the speaker. To prevent this problem, first decrease the volume of the speaker, do not place the microphone pointed at the speaker, and keep a sufficient distance between the microphone and the speaker.
- The microphone is sensitive equipment; do not drop, hit it, or apply shock to it.
