General Rules for Use
Proximity Effect
When the supercardioid microphone get closer to the sound source, the low frequency response is
boosted, as so call “proximity effect”. Experience engineer takes advantages of the proximity effect to
improve the richness of instrument sound or to increase the bass of the instrument as if an extremely
high quality equalizer is used. Same ideas to reduce the bass by increase the distance to reduce the
bass when needed.
Mounting the Microphone
Sturdy drum clamp and stand can set the microphone exactly at the sweet spot and keep it there.
Superlux provides wide range of drum clamps and stands for various demands. Please check on our
web site www.superlux.com.tw to get more information.
Maintenance
Microphones shall be kept in low humidity environment for best sound performance. Store the
microphones in air-conditioned room or dehumidifier to keep away from moisture. Clean air is another
important factor. Keep away from smoking environment to avoid tar residuals.

Studio Condenser Microphone
Designed for critical home/project/professional studio applications and live performance, these
side-address supercardioid studio condenser microphones deliver exceptional detail and low
noise. Along with its rugged construction and high-performance specifications, the E202, E205
and E206 provide an exceptional level of consistency from model to model. It comes equipped
with a pivoting stand mount and a protective pouch.
• High SPL handling and wide dynamic range provide unmatched versatility
• Custom-engineered low-mass diaphragm provides extended frequency response and
superior transient response
• Supercardioid directivity, high gain before feedback
E202 plus
• Large diaphragm delivers flat frequency response, making sound true and clear
E205 plus
• Smooth, natural sound and low noise
E206 plus
• The best value standard in side-address studio condenser microphone technology
• For best signal to noise ratio, distance from the microphone to the sound source shall be as short
as possible.
• The sensitivity of a supercardioid microphone is highest on axis and lowest at 120 to 135 degrees.
• To reduce crosstalk between microphones, an 1:3 guide line shall be follow: The distance between
microphone A to the sound source A is “ 1” , the distance between any other microphone to the
sound source A shall be more than 3 times.
