Get to know your Microsone Discreet Audio Monitoring System Microsone At the heart of the Discreet Audio Monitoring System is the Microsone, the world’s smallest rechargeable bluetooth earbud, designed to fit comfortably in ears of all sizes. When hidden in the wearer’s ear canal, even those closest won’t know it’s there. The Microsone is built durable and solid, with no buttons, dials, or spinning doors.
Microsones & Charging Case Powering On & Off To power your Microsone on, remove it from the Charging Case. A chime will sound to inform you that the Microsone is indeed powered on. To power your Microsone off, simply place it back into the Charging Case Pairing Microsone with Control Pack Upon powering on, Microsone will search for its most recent pairing. If it is within Bluetooth range of its most recent pairing, it will connect and begin receiving audio.
How to insert Microsone into the ear After choosing which ear you want to wear the Microsone, take it between thumb and forefinger so that indent in Microsone is facing out from your ear and downward. Carefully guide the earpiece into your ear canal. Ensure that the earpiece sits as far as possible inside the ear canal, as well as in the best and most comfortable position. Twist the Microsone gently into place to ensure the best fit, with the indent of Microsone now pointing upwards.
Control Pack Get to know Control Pack Control Pack is equipped with a top-seated headphone output connector and volume knob. The headphone output allows Control Pack to be used as a wired IFB receiver, or for general troubleshooting to ensure quality audio is being received at the Control Pack before being transmitted to the Microsone. On the face of Control Pack, you’ll find the OLED Display, with four buttons labeled MENU, UP, DOWN, and SELECT.
