How to set the microphone after connecting to the computer?

Please check the documentation

Correct the whistling sound coming from a mic?

  • That whistling sound is called an Audio feedback and caused because of an endless loop caused when the mic picks up the sound of the loudspeakers and sends it back to the loudspeakers to amplify and picks up again
  • Ways to correct /avoid feedback
  1. Face the speakers away from the mic or place farther away.
  2. Lower their volume or mic gain

Use unidirectional cardioid mics which have a rear rejection that means no pickup from back side. Then you can use stage monitors facing you in the middle of the stage. And mic won't pickup them.

  1. Ring out the speaker - deliberately create feedback by taking the mic closer to the speaker. When feedback happens, check the frequency on a real-time analyser and cut it using channel eq or graphic eq.
  2. Use a feedback reducer

 

  1. Microphone is not recognized on the PC?
  • Shut down and restart the computer and leave it for 20 minutes before connecting again
  • Update the driver in the device manager, uninstall the driver and re-insert the microphone
  • Use on another computer to see if it can be loaded, loaded out again after inserting the computer that can not be identified
  • Use the driver master, the brand comes with the software or the brand's official website to update the driver (such as Lenovo, Dell) to avoid the impact of missing drivers

USB Microphone not Working on Mac

How to connect DM30 to Android and iOS?

  • Android can be connected through OTG adapter or USB-C to USB-C data cable
  • iOS can be connected through the adapter cable provided by our company

Microphone has obvious current sound

  • Unplug the microphone data cable, replace the USB port and reconnect it (desktop computer to the USB behind the chassis, do not use a hub or docking station)
  • Stay away from audio and electronic products to avoid electronic signal interference. Change to a quiet environment to use the microphone, avoid external ambient sound being picked up by the microphone, troubleshoot the problem first
  • Turn off the use of third-party software, use the recorder that comes with the computer to test
  • May be the computer or plug board leakage, you can choose to replace a computer test

Microphone has obvious humming sound

  • Microphone gain is too high, the microphone is sensitive, resulting in picking up more ambient sound, please reduce the microphone gain, it will improve the sound quality
  • DM30 is a condenser microphone, picking up sensitive sound, the microphone brings more sound details at the same time, will pick up ambient sound, please keep a distance from your computer, cooling fan rotation and operation will generate noise
  • USB interface or data cable is bad, please replace the connection cable or USB jack (desktop computer, please connect to the USB port behind the chassis)

What are the power consumption parameters of DM30

5V / 100mA - 230mA

Microphone and Maono Link are not connected successfully

  • Please check the connection of the audio cable to the computer, unplug it and reconnect it
  • Check whether the microphone can be used normally on the computer

How to set up the connection computer

Correct the whistling sound coming from a mic?

That whistling sound is called Audio feedback and caused because of an endless loop caused when the mic picks up the sound of the loudspeakers (stage monitors or pa speakers) and sends it back to the loudspeakers to amplify and pick up again, resulting in 1 particular frequency getting boosted depending upon the resonance of the room, the speakers, etc.
 
Ways to correct /avoid feedback?
1.    Face the speakers away from the mic or place them farther away.
2.    Lower their volume or mic gain
3.    Use unidirectional cardioid mics which have a rear rejection that means no pickup from back side. Then you can use stage monitors facing you in the middle of the stage. And the mic won't pick up them.
4.    Ring out the speaker - deliberately create feedback by taking the mic closer to the speaker. When feedback happens, check the frequency on a real-time analyzer and cut it using channel eq or graphic eq.
5.    Use a feedback reducer
