CONNECTING THE MICROPHONES
CAUTION!
The microphones included in the Lexicon Microphone Kit
require careful handling. Dropping or otherwise physically
abusing the microphones might cause errors during use or
irreparable damage to the microphone.
The microphone wires also require careful handling. Do not
sharply bend the wires or place objects on them.
Never make or break microphone input connections unless
the MC-12 is powered off with the rear panel power switch
OR standby mode is activated with the front panel or
remote control standby button.
Note the following:
Automatic calibration requires the microphones included in the
Lexicon Microphone Kit available at authorized Lexicon dealers.
Performing automatic calibration with microphones other than
those in the kit will produce unpredictable results.
Proper microphone placement is essential to achieving the
desired automatic calibration results. Pay particular attention to
the microphone placement instructions and illustrations
included in this section.
It is important to read and observe the care and handling docu-
mentation included with the Lexicon Microphone Kit to ensure
optimal microphone performance.

During the microphone check, the microphones will be
referred to as 1, 2, 3, and 4 based on the input connector to
which the microphone is connected. You should label the
microphones for troubleshooting purposes.
