RF-5P-B Reflection Filter Owner’s Manual
Introduction Thank you for choosing Auray. Congratulations on your purchase of the Auray RF-5P-B Reflection Filter. Ideal for voice recording in a room that does not have acoustic treatment, the RF-5P-B is designed to absorb and help isolate the microphone from unwanted ambient reflections. When recording vocals in an acoustically untreated room like a bedroom, living room, or project studio, the vocals bounce off the walls, floor, and ceiling, and are picked up by the microphone.

Setting Up Your Microphone on the Bracket 1. If necessary, attach the bracket by fitting it around the male thumb nut and screwing the nut into the threaded socket of the reflection filter. 10 2. Insert the small thread of the microphone stand into the wide end of the slot and slide it to the desired position. 11 3. Screw on the thumbscrew to secure the microphone stand to the bracket. 12 4. Mount your microphone onto the microphone stand.
Positioning the Microphone It is usually most desirable to place the microphone directly in the center of the reflection filter in order to reduce the most amount of ambient noise. You can also adjust the microphone placement in the filter to produce a creative effect. For example, you can move the microphone away from the rear panel to let in more ambient noise for a more open sound. We encourage you to experiment on your own.
