Pouch Attached to Piano Leg

The enclosed leather pouch has Velcro straps that allow it to be attached to the leg 

of a piano. The pouch is open at the top and the bottom has a strap to prevent the 

electronics box from falling out of the bottom. There is an opening at the bottom 

of the pouch to conveniently attach the two standard XLR-3 microphone cables 

that go to your mixer preamp inputs (See Figures 14 and 15).

Electronics Box Attached to Mic Stand Bracket

The electronics box has a threaded insert in the bottom of the box that will 

mate with the threads on a standard microphone stand. By this method, the 

electronics box can be mounted to a short mic stand to keep it above floor level, 

if desired (see Figure 16).

 

Now you should be ready to use the PianoMic™ System and achieve some 

impressive sonic results for recording or live performances.

If you have any questions after reading and following the directions in this manual, 

please contact Earthworks directly using the contact information on the back page 

of the manual.
