attenuation switch.

Configuration / Volume control

Perception USB

Use your recordin software to set the volume. When usin the microphone or

recordin from a sound source, adjust the volume control and check the level

indicator.

For best results we recommend the hi hest possible volume settin to reduce

unwanted noise. The settin should not be too hi h, however, as this can

cause unpleasant distortion. This will normally be indicated in red on the

recordin software.

Carefully increase the volume until the level display in your recordin software

no lon er shows an overload (red).

For best results when recordin speech we recommend placin the

microphone 20 to 40 cm (8 to 16 inch) in front of the speaker(s).
