Terminals marked with this symbol

carry electrical current of sucient

magnitude to constitute risk

of electric shock. Useonly high-quality

commercially-available speaker cables

with ¼"TS plugs pre-installed. Allother

installation or modication should be

performed only by qualiedpersonnel.

This symbol, wherever it appears,

alerts you to the presence of

uninsulated dangerous voltage

inside the enclosure -voltage that may be

sucient to constitute a risk ofshock.

This symbol, wherever it appears,

alertsyou to important operating

and maintenance instructions in the

accompanying literature. Please read themanual.

Condenser microphones are

extremely moisture-sensitive.

Never use your microphone in close

proximity to water (e.g. bath tubs, wash basins,

sinks, washing machines, pools, etc.).

Caution

Always use the power

supply specied in the

operating instructions.

Caution

Take care not to drop your

microphone as this can lead to

severe damage. BEHRINGER assumes no liability

for any damage caused by the user.

After each use, wipe the

microphone down with a soft cloth

and place it back into its

protective casing (included with the

microphone). The small bag containing the

moisture-absorbing crystals should remain in

the casing to help keep your microphone dry.

Caution

Never dismount the screen holding

the capsule, as this can damage

the microphone! Never try to modify the printed

circuit board inside your C-1U! This can lead to

microphone damage that cannot be repaired.

Any such attempt will void the warranty.

In exceptional cases, external interference

(e.g. contact and electrostatic discharge) may

aect the functioning of the unit and result in

audio or functional impairment. In any such

case, please disconnect the unit briey from the

USB port and restart the application to return to

normal operation.

The sound quality may diminish within the

range of powerful broadcasting stations and

high-frequency sources. Increase the distance

between the transmitter and the device and use

shielded cables for all connections.

1. Directivity

Your C-1U features a capsule with a cardioid pickup pattern and is ideal for recording

individual instruments, vocals and speech. Cardioid pickup pattern means that the sound

produced by sources located in front of the mic is strongly picked up. It is often used

in recording situations, since this directivity pattern tones down the pickup of sounds

located to the back of the microphone.

To place the microphone correctly, the BEHRINGER logo needs to face the sound source

being recorded.

2. Mounting the Microphone

There is an adapter on your microphone that lets you mount it on mic stands with

either metric (Europe) or imperial-gauge threads (North America). First dismantle the

microphone from the stand mount adapter by detaching the ne-thread shoulder screw

at the bottom end of the microphone. Fasten the adapter onto the microphone stand,

place the microphone into it and tighten the screw again.

Basically, the microphone in the stand mount adapter should stand upright and face the

sound source at a right angle. The angle of the microphone to the sound source inuences

the sound of the recording; therefore, experiment with dierent positions until you

achieve the desired sound. To this end, you can rotate the mic in the stand mount adapter

by loosening the screw somewhat and tightening it again.

If necessary, you can bend the microphone out of its vertical position by using the hinge

on the microphone stand.

◊ Please make sure to handle the microphone shaft with attention and care

to avoid damaging the screw thread. In no situation should you ever apply

excessive force.

Of course, you can detach the C-1U from the stand mount adapter and attach it to a

commercially available suspension mount.

3. Installing the Microphone

3.1 Technical requirements

Your C-1U microphone comes with a USB connector. The audio signal is sent from the

microphone to the computer through this connection. At the same time the computer uses

the USB connection to supply the microphone with the necessary power. A connection is

made by using the included USB cable with type-B connector.

◊ Use only the included cable to ensure an optimal signal quality and a reliable

power supply.

To operate the C-1U, your computer needs to meet the following system requirements:

3.2 Initial operation

Before you can use your C-1U, connect it to a free USB port on your computer.

For initial operation of your C-1U, complete the following steps:

1) Power up your computer.

2) Connect your C-1U to a free USB port on your computer.

◊ Your operating system automatically installs the required drivers.

3) Select the C-1U as input source in your preferred audio software application.

Windows:

4) Adjust the recording level as required, using the Windows Volume Control panel.

Mac OS:

5) Adjust the recording level as required, using Audio Midi Setup in Mac OS.

◊ Your C‑1U is now ready for use.

Complete the following steps should you want to use your C-1U by default in

other applications:

Windows:

• Select the C-1U in the pull-down menu of Sound recording by clicking

on Sounds and Audio Devices in the Control Panel and then clicking the tab Audio

Mac OS:

• Select C-1U as Default Input found under the tab Audio Devices in Audio Midi Setup

of Mac OS

4. Using the Microphone

To get the sound you want, try changing the mic position relative to the sound source or

even move the microphone around in the recording room of your studio. Adjusting the

angle at which walls face the sound source can also be helpful. Only when the desired

basic sound has been achieved, should you start to use equalizers and signal processors,

if any at all (remember: less is often more!).

Due to the extremely linear frequency response and the high sonic resolution of your C-1U,

there is no need for high-frequency “EQing” that can heavily inuence the signal and

unnecessarily increase the noise level. The C-1U provides that much-desired transparency

which often gets lost during recording and mixing.
