UT200 Bass/Midrange/Treble Boost/Cut

• Midrange cut sounds very smooth. Almost a “crooner”

quality. A sweet sound.

• Midrange boost is likely to be useful in a system that is

midrange shy.

• Treble cut has a “mellow” sound. The capsule has a solid

high end so a little cut does not ruin the response.

• Treble boost might be fine on some sound systems. The

sound doesn’t get harsh (showing that the response was

smooth) but sibilants are a little too much. Should be

used in moderation.

PREAMP LEVEL CONTROL

The VariMic head includes an attenuator to provide an

additional 15dB of headroom when needed. The attenuator

should only be used when the normal Mic Level pot is

already turned down as far as it will go and the signal

through the mic is still too hot. The attenuator control is a

16-position switch marked 0 through F. “F” is minimum

attenuation or the highest signal level. “0” is maximum

attenuation or the lowest signal level. For the maximum

amount of headroom, set the switch to “0.”

Note: The attenuator should not be used as a level

control. The Audio Level control inside the battery

compartment is the main level control. Adjust the

attenuator only when the Audio Level control is

turned completely down and more headroom is still

needed. Be sure to set the attenuator back to its

original setting for normal operation.

BASS FILTER

In addition to the tone controls, the

UT400 also has a built in bass filter. This

filter is fixed and cannot be adjusted or

defeated. Low frequency noise is much
