Powering the microphone There are two ways to power the TM-STPRO: 1. Turn on the Phantom Power switch on your micro- phone preamp. You should switch on phantom power for both channels of the TM-STPRO. Phantom power sends 48 volts to the microphone over the cable and is commonly found on professional mixers and recorders. 2. Install a AA battery to power the microphone. An alkaline AA battery provides approximately 400 hours of op- eration under normal circumstances. There is no power switch on the TM-STPRO, so you need to remove the battery when you are finished using the microphone. Installing the battery 1. Unscrew microphone body cover 2. Remove the body shell 3. Insert the battery, taking note of the polarity Battery Precautions: • Insert the battery correctly • Do not charge the included AA battery • Remove the battery if the microphone will not be used for a long period of time • If the battery leaks, clean the battery holder before inserting a new battery Using the Low Cut Filter The low-cut filter switch is located on the top of the microphone. To switch on the low cut filter, move the switch to the down position (indicated by the icon). Move the switch to the up position for full bass response (indicated by the icon). The low cut filter attenuates frequencies below 150Hz at a cutoff slope of 6dB per octave. To permanently set the microphone for flat response, so that it cannot be accidentally switched to rolloff mode, use the switch protector located under the switch. Unscrew the philips screw holding the switch protector in place, rotate it so it faces upward, then replace the philips screw.
