• Provides natural, full-range vocal reproduction
• Silent on-off operation thanks to MagnaLock™switch design
• Hi-ENERGY®neodymium magnet for improved output and
transient response
• Two-stage ball-type screen reduces wind noise and “popping”
during close use
• Corrosion-resistant contacts from gold-plated XLRM-type
connectors
• Superior internal shock mounting reduces handling noise
• Rugged design and construction for reliable performance
• Cardioid polar pattern reduces pickup of sounds from the sides
and rear, improving isolation of desired sound source
Output from the microphone’s XLRM-type connector is low
impedance (Lo-Z) balanced. The signal appears across Pins 2 and 3;
Pin 1 is ground (shield). Output phase is “Pin 2 hot” – positive acoustic
pressure produces positive voltage at Pin 2.

To avoid phase cancellation and poor sound, all mic cables must be
wired consistently: Pin 1-to-Pin 1, etc. For a high-impedance (Hi-Z) mic
input, connect a Lo-Z balanced cable to a Hi-Z matching transformer
(A-T CP8201 or equal) at the equipment input.
When using the PRO 41 in settings with a stage monitor speaker,
the speaker should be located 180° off axis (at the rear of the
microphone). This placement, in conjunction with the microphone’s
uniform cardioid pickup pattern, will virtually eliminate the possibility of
undesired audio feedback.
The PRO 41 utilizes a MagnaLock on/off switch. This specially designed
switch operates silently and may be locked in the “on” position to
prevent accidental turn-off during use. To lock, slide the switch up into
the “on” position (Fig. 1a). Using a small flat-head screwdriver, rotate
the small screw in the center of the switch 90 degrees (
1
/4turn)
counter-clockwise (Fig. 1b). Never force the screw. When the screw slot
position is horizontal (“across” the microphone body), the switch is
locked. To unlock the switch, turn the screw 90 degrees clockwise until
the screw slot position is again vertical (in line with the microphone
body). Never try to turn the switch more than 90 degrees or
1
/4rotation.
The switch may only be locked in the “on” position. Do not try to turn the
screw when the switch is in the “off” position.
Take care to keep foreign particles from entering the windscreen. An
accumulation of iron or steel filings on the diaphragm, and/or
foreign material in the windscreen’s mesh surface, can degrade
performance.
