7. Ensure the clamp is tightened suf-
ficiently to prevent it falling off
when the selected microphone is
attached to the boom but do not
over-tighten. It is unlikely that
sufficient force can be applied to
damage the instrument but if in
doubt always consult a specialist
dealer, maker or repairer of simi-
lar instruments. Also ensure
the boom itself is held tightly
enough to prevent it from drop-
ping onto the instrument under
gravity when the microphone is at-
tached.
8. Fit the microphone in its clip or
shockmount and hold it securely
while loosening the boom grip (to
allow the microphone’s position to
be adjusted).
9. Move the boom up and down, slide
it in and out and / or rotate it until
the microphone is in the desired
position and then tighten the
boom grip securely. Readjust as
necessary but ensure the boom
grip is re-tightened securely be-
fore attempting to adjust the posi-
tioning of the H-clamp itself.
10. To reposition the H-clamp (now
with microphone attached), hold
the clamp / microphone carefully
with one hand and loosen the
clamp tightening screw under
the bottom clamp disk with the
other. Rotate or re-position the
clamp at will and re-tighten it
securely when you are satisfied
with the new positioning. Ensure
the boom grip is tightened as hard
as possible.
