everything you need to dial in your sound
right on the face of the microphone itself.
There are three knobs on the front of the
microphone. The top one is mic gain

input level of the mic. Next is Mic Level

your device or DAW. The sE logo on the
front of the microphone is a push-button
mute/on switch that blinks red when the
mic is muted.
Things to Plug In

. There is a USB-C connector on the bottom
of the mic, and on the back of the
mic, you'll find a 1
