How to use

Connect the Sennheiser e 835 S to a mixing console or preamplifier using an XLR cable. Position the microphone about 5–15 cm from the sound source for vocals, angling slightly to avoid plosives.

Recommendations

For best results on stage, combine the cardioid pattern with proper monitor placement to minimize feedback; use a pop filter or slight off-axis positioning to reduce plosive sounds when close-miking vocals.
