| Using the Microphone | |
 The studio has a Neumann TLM 102 microphone. |
 The mic is routed to channel 8 of the studio’s audio interface. |
 You must unmute channel 8 by clicking the “Mute” button to use the microphone. |
 Also ensure that the button labeled “+48V” is lit up red on the front of the interface. The mic will not work if this setting isn’t engaged. |
 While using the microphone, mute the speakers in the studio by pressing the “monitor” knob on the left-hand side of the audio interface inwards. It should turn red as shown. If you don’t mute the speakers while using the mic, it may generate feedback, which is an extremely loud high-pitched screeching noise. |
 Adjust the headphone volume as shown, and wear the headphones to hear what you’re recording while the speakers are muted. |
