SPECIFICATIONS 

CARE AND PRECAUTIONS 

  

• When  not  in  use,  please  store  your  V44S  microphone  in  the  provided  padded  wooden 

microphone case. We recommend keeping the plastic sleeve that the microphone is shipped 
in,  and  keeping  it  on  the  microphone  when  not  in  use  to  prevent  debris  build-up  on  the 
capsule. The provided microfiber storage bag can also be used for this. 

• When using for close-mic’d vocals, it is important to use a high quality Pop Filter to protect the 

capsule against breath moisture, as well as plosive blasts like “P”, “K”, “T”, etc. Failure to use a 
Pop Filter may result in damage to your microphone. 

• Always  protect  your  V44S  from  any  hard  jolts,  drops,  and  vibrations.  Although  it  is  ruggedly 

constructed,  it  is  a  professional  tool  and  should  be  treated  with  respect.  Always  handle  with 
care.

smoke.

 open the V44S microphone while plugged in.
