PHASING

To test two microphones for proper phasing, connect them to an amplifier and talk or sing into them while holding them three or four inches apart. The sound from the speakers should be the same when talking into either microphone or directly between them if they are in phase with each other. If the sound drops drastically, or if a dead spot is found when talking between the two microphones, the microphones are out of phase. All microphones should be tested in this manner to insure that they are in phase with each other.

To change the phase of a low-impedance microphone at the equipment end of the cable, interchange the BLACK and WHITE cable leads where they are connected to the sound system. To change the phase of a microphone, the microphone cartridge leads must be interchanged (see Figure 4). This should be performed by your dealer, the Shure Factory Service Department, or other qualified service personnel.
