Parabolic Reflector Assembly and Use ASSEMBLY You have booked out and probably have in your hands a very delicate piece of sound recording hardware. Please read our terms and conditions before proceeding. This is what it should look like when it is assembled correctly: The parabolic reflector MUST be used with the Tascam DR100. The best result will be obtained out doors. If used indoors various echoes will be picked up from close proximity walls and ceilings. Best results can be obtained by using the Tascam DR1000 in battery mode. If the machine is used in mains power mode a loud buzz may be heard. This is not a fault. So always go for battery mode After assembly, if it looks any different to the photos above, dismantle it and have another go. Here’s what to do: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Locate the grey tube Unscrew grey disc Slip parabolic reflector over thread Screw grey disc onto thread to clamp reflector (see diagram) Slide back end of microphone into tube so that mic is inside dish Slide handle assembly onto grey tube and tighten up lower screw Plug mic cable into mic Plug kit cable into bottom of handle Plug XLR’s into recorder HOW TO USE IT Instruction for the toggles switch will go here, once I have had a look at it!!!! This unit requires you to switch the phantom power on the Tascam DR100 to the "ON" position. Located on the underneath of the maching. You will have to activate the XLR mode on the front of the Tascam DR100. Remember you will have to regulate your own recording level and this is a very responsive microphone, so an overloaded recording may not be a stranger to you !!!!.. . Keep an eye on those LED's And wear headphones And listen to them !!! NOTES
