Dragon 12 Installation and User Guide
To position a handheld microphone or recorder
n Point the microphone element to the side of or below your mouth to avoid
noise from breathing. Do not hold the microphone directly in front of your
mouth.
n Hold the microphone in a comfortable position. Make sure not to hold it in
an awkward, tiring position.
n Make sure that the microphone element is about 1 to 3 inches away from
your mouth. You should keep the microphone distance in this range, but
you don't have to always keep the microphone at exactly the same dis-
tance.
n Hold the microphone so that the front points toward your mouth. Don't
talk into the side of the microphone.
n Hold the microphone consistently every time you use it. Be careful not to
move the microphone or your head suddenly.
n Do not use a microphone stand or holder because it will be harder to keep
a consistent position and the stand may conduct noise.
