6.3.1 Connecting a Condenser Microphone
KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 setup with microphone and headphones.
Make sure to have connected the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 to your computer as described during
the installation chapter (chapter ↑2, Installing KOMPLETE AUDIO 6) of this manual.
Make sure the volume on the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6's main outs (Volume Control knob
"MAIN VOLUME 1/2") is turned down before connecting a microphone to the KOM-
PLETE AUDIO 6. Microphones nearby speakers can cause a loud squealing tone from
the speakers due to a phenomenon called the Larsen effect or audio feedback loop and
can seriously damage your hearing and your equipment. The greater the distance be-
tween a microphone and speakers means this effect is less likely to occur.
To use the KOMPLETE AUDIO 6 in a recording setup with a condenser microphone:
1. Turn the Volume Control knob (MAIN VOLUME 1/2) on the top panel of the KOMPLETE
AUDIO 6 to the left-end stop to set the main output volume to minimum.
2. Plug an XLR cable jack from your condenser microphone into either INPUT 1 or INPUT 2
on the front panel of your KOMPLETE AUDIO 6.
