CONNECTING THE SPC-15
The SPC-15 can be used in live sound reinforcement and
broadcasting and in studio or live recording. It must be
powered by 48V phantom power (such as supplied by the
optional Nady SMPS-1 phantom power supply or a mixing
console with phantom powering), and amplified by a
microphone pre-amp (such as built into a mixer, or a stand-
alone unit).
The SCP-15 can be connected to your mixer or phantom
power supply using a standard balanced 3-pin XLR
microphone cable. Before connecting to a mixer directly, turn
the channel to which you’re connecting to its lowest gain
setting. If you are using the Nady SMPS-1 Phantom Power
Supply, connect in the following order:
1. Connect the SPC-15 to the SMPS-1
(Note: Make sure to set the pre-amp to the proper gain level-
too much gain may distort subsequent amplifiers and too little
may result in a noisy signal)
2. Connect the SMPS-1 Signal Output to your mixer
3. Connect the SMPS-1 to the AC power supply (115-230VAC)
4. Turn on the SMPS-1 Power ON/OFF switch
5. Slowly turn up the channel gain in your mixer to the
desired level
