HSP 2/HSP 4 High-quality back-electret condenser headmics, designed for professional “hands free” applications. The adjustable neckband is visually unobtrusive and very comfortable to wear. The 12 available HSP variants differ in pick-up pattern, colour and connector.
Delivery includes y Boom microphone y Neckband y Neckband connecting cable y Plastic transport case, foam-lined with cut-outs y Instructions for use y Warranty Certificate Attaching the microphone boom The neckband has two holders which are designed so that the microphone booms can be worn on either side of the mouth. To change the microphone boom, carefully lever it out of the holder. To reattach the microphone boom, press it into the holder until it snaps in. The upper round recess is for the HSP 2 (∅ 1.
The cushion delivered with your HSP 2/HSP 4 improves the wearing comfort. If desired, attach the cushion to your microfone boom fastener. Adjusting the neckband You can adjust the neckband to fit all head sizes. To do so, change the length of the neckband by pushing in or pulling out the ear bows. Cable holder Attach the microphone cable to the holder in the centre of the neckband.
Changing the microphone The connection between the microphone boom and the microphone cable ist very tight. To loosen this connection, insert your fingernail into the join and then pull the connector and the socket apart as shown. Note: When pulling apart, make sure you hold the thick end of the connector and the socket (NOT the cable). Pulling the thin microphone boom or the cable sleeve can damage the microphone boom or cable. This will invalidate the Sennheiser warranty.
Positioning the microphone capsule (HSP 2) It is best to keep the microphone capsule at the side of the mouth to minimise the risk of popping noises caused by plosives from the mouth. To position the microphone capsule, push the microphone boom backwards or forwards in the holder. To adjust the angle of the microphone boom, move it to one of the three possible positions until it snaps in.
Positioning the microphone capsule (HSP 4) The microphone capsule has a cardioid pick-up pattern and is best placed directly at the corner of the mouth. Note: Do not position the microphone directly in front of your mouth as it will pick up your breathing and plosive noises from your mouth. Make sure that the windshield is put on. To position the microphone capsule, push the microphone boom backwards or forwards in the holder. The microphone capsule can be precisely positioned using the flexible gooseneck.
