Shure 565SD-LC Cardioid Dynamic Microphone

1. Uvod

The Shure 565SD-LC is a versatile, high-quality cardioid dynamic microphone designed for vocal and speech reproduction. Known as the predecessor to the legendary Shure SM58, this microphone has a rich history, including its use on the Woodstock stage. It is a popular choice for various applications, from live performances and studio recordings to public address systems in auditoriums, churches, convention halls, and schools.

The 565SD-LC features a robust construction with a durable wire-mesh spherical front grille, incorporating a highly effective wind and 'pop' filter. Its selectable dual-impedance operation and silent, lockable on/off switch provide flexibility and control for professional use.

2. Postavljanje

2.1 Raspakiranje i pregled

Carefully remove the microphone and its accessories from the packaging. Inspect all components for any signs of damage. The package should include the Shure 565SD-LC microphone and a microphone clip.

2.2 Pričvršćivanje kopče za mikrofon

The included Shure A25D microphone clip allows for secure mounting of the microphone to a standard microphone stand. Thread the microphone clip onto the stand and then gently insert the microphone into the clip.

2.3 Spajanje mikrofona

The 565SD-LC utilizes a 3-pin XLR connector for audio output. Connect a standard XLR cable (not included) from the microphone's output to your mixer, audio interface, or public address system's microphone input. Ensure a secure connection.

2.4 Impedance Selection

The 565SD-LC offers selectable dual-impedance operation. It is shipped connected for low-impedance operation, which is suitable for most modern audio equipment. Refer to your audio equipment's manual to determine the optimal impedance setting. Adjustments to impedance are typically made internally by a qualified technician if required.

3. Operacija

3.1 Uključivanje/isključivanje

The microphone features a silent magnetic reed on/off switch with a lock-on option. To turn the microphone on, slide the switch to the 'ON' position. To turn it off, slide the switch to the 'OFF' position. The lock-on option prevents accidental switching during performance or presentation.

3.2 Postavljanje mikrofona

The 565SD-LC has a cardioid (unidirectional) pickup pattern, meaning it is most sensitive to sounds coming from directly in front of it and rejects sounds from the sides and rear. For optimal vocal or speech reproduction, position the microphone directly in front of the sound source, typically 2 to 6 inches away. Experiment with distance to achieve the desired tone and to utilize the proximity effect (increased bass response when close to the microphone).

3.3 Wind and Pop Filter

The integrated wire-mesh spherical grille acts as a highly effective wind and 'pop' filter, reducing plosive sounds (like 'p' and 'b') and breath noises. For situations with extreme plosives or outdoor use, an external foam windscreen may be used for additional protection.

4. Održavanje

4.1 Čišćenje

To maintain the microphone's performance and appearance, regularly wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. For the grille, a soft brush can be used to gently remove any debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish and internal components.

4.2 Skladištenje

When not in use, store the microphone in its included pouch or a protective case to prevent dust accumulation and physical damage. Avoid exposing the microphone to extreme temperatures, high humidity, or direct sunlight for extended periods.

5. Rješavanje problema

If you experience issues with your Shure 565SD-LC microphone, consider the following:

• Nema izlaza zvuka:
  • Ensure the microphone's on/off switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify that the XLR cable is securely connected at both the microphone and the audio equipment.
  • Provjerite razine ulaznog pojačanja na mikseru ili audio sučelju.
  • Test with a different XLR cable to rule out cable issues.
• Poor Sound Quality (e.g., muffled, distorted):
  • Adjust microphone placement relative to the sound source.
  • Ensure the impedance setting is appropriate for your audio equipment.
  • Provjerite ima li oštećenja na rešetki ili kapsuli mikrofona.
  • Reduce input gain if distortion is present.
• Pretjerana buka pri rukovanju:
  • Ensure the microphone is properly seated in the microphone clip.
  • Use a high-quality microphone stand that minimizes vibrations.
