INTRODUCTION
The Shure Model WH30 is a light yet rugged headset microphone. Designed for vocalists and instrument-playing vocalists, the WH30 utilizes a high quality electret-condenser car­tridge suitable for all applications where mobility, comfort, low microphone-visibility, and high sound quality are required. Because of its cardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern, the WH30 provides isolation from extraneous sound sources and high gain-before-feedback.
The wireframe and gooseneck adjust to any head size and shape. An integrated elastic headband comfortably pads and secures the headset. The WH30 is supplied with two snap-on windscreens, clothing clip, storage bag and cable-management device.

POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE
For maximum gain-before-feedback, position the microphone and boom so that the mi­crophone is within 13 mm (1/2 inch) of the right co rner of your mouth (see Figure 3). This will also help minimize breath noise or “popping”.
