11. With the PianoMic™ placed in-
side the piano and the microphones
properly positioned you are ready to
connect the PianoMic™ cable to the
electronics box via a 5-pin XLR con-
nector. The back of the electronics
box has two XLR-3 connectors that
will connect the microphone outputs
to the preamp inputs of your mixer
(See Figure 13).
12. Notice in Figure 14 that
the top of each microphone
head has a number. These
numbers correspond to the
numbers on the rear of the
electronics box. Depending
upon how the PianoMic™ is
placed in the piano the high
strings will be indicated by
either the number 1 or num-
ber 2. Once the PianoMic™
has been placed, identify the
microphone numbers on the
mic heads for both the high
and low strings and remem-
ber that they correspond to
the numbers on the rear of the
electronics box. This will allow you to correctly identify the microphone sig-
nals for high and low strings that are connected to the preamps of your mixer.
Remember that the PianoMic™ requires 48-volt phantom power.
13. There are two ways to mount the electronics box: (1) in a leather pouch
strapped to the leg of the piano, or (2) attached to a short microphone stand.
The PianoMic™ System comes equipped to install the electronics box in
either of these two ways.
