USING THE SPLITTER BOX 

The  V44S  splitter  box  was  designed  with  mobile  recording  situations  in  mind.  There  are  a  few 
extra inputs and outputs on the splitter box that may come in handy.  

Inputs 

V44S -

 This 5-pin XLR connector connectors the V44S microphone to the splitter box. It routes to 

all three outputs. 

MID

 - you can use two mono microphones with the splitter box for Mid-Side recording in mobile 

recording situations. This 3-pin XLR connector routes to the “BOTTOM” output. 

SIDE 

-  you can use two mono microphones with the splitter box for Mid-Side recording in mobile 

recording situations. This 3-pin XLR connector routes to the “TOP” and “TOP Ø” outputs. 

Outputs 

BOTTOM -

 This 3-pin XLR connector routes to the bottom capsule of the V44S microphone - or the 

“MID” input in the case of using two mono microphones. 

TOP

 - This 3-pin XLR connector routes to the top capsule of the V44S microphone - or the “SIDE” 

input in the case of using two mono microphones. 

TOP  Ø 

-  This  3-pin  XLR  connector  routes  to  the  top  capsule  of  the  V44S  microphone  -  or  the 

“SIDE” input in the case of using tw o mono microphones. 

This connector is phase-reversed and 

transformer-isolated.

 This output is specifically for Mid-Side recording in mobile or live situations 

where a phase-reversed input is not available on your mixer or DAW. Instead, you can use this 
output and a 3rd XLR cable to have all the necessary tracks for Mid-Side stereo.
