Using the NT2-A

• The NT2-A is a phantom powered microphone. To

operate correctly it requires a 48V phantom supply

from the mixing console or other source.

• Please ensure all cable connections are secure

before applying power to the microphone, and

allow a few moments for the microphone to

stabilise after the power is turned on.

• The gold dot on the face of the NT2-A indicates

the front of the microphone, and the pick-up area

of the cardioid pattern. Please be sure to have the

side with the dot facing the sound source you wish

to record.
