2 Interfacing
• Use a commercial XLR cable.
The length of these cables does not affect audio quality.
• To connect the microphone to an unbalanced microphone input (1/4" jack),
use a cable with a female XLR connector and a 1/4" TS jack plug. These cables
are available at music stores.
• Unbalanced cables may pick up interference from stray magnetic fields near
power or lighting cables, electric motors, etc. like an antenna. This may cause
hum or similar noise if you use a cable that is longer than 16 feet (5 m).
1. Use an XLR cable to connect the microphone to a balanced XLR input with
phantom power.
2. Switch the phantom power on. (Refer to the instruction manual of the unit to
which you connected your C 1000 S.)
