Vocaster Two user guide
Typical dynamic microphones (the Vocaster DM1 and DM14v pictured)
Vocaster Two can provide phantom power (48 volts) at the XLR inputs if you’re using a condenser microphone.
To enable phantom power, press the Host or Guest button to select the input and push the 48V button on the
rear panel: the 48V LED lights red to confirm it’s active.
Dynamic microphones don’t require phantom power. It’s rare, but you can damage some microphones using
phantom power. We recommend turning off phantom power when you use a dynamic microphone. If you are
unsure whether your microphone needs phantom power, please check its documentation.
Microphone setup
Vocaster Two has two ways of setting the correct microphone levels. ‘Gain’ is the term we use to describe how
much you are boosting a microphone signal.
You can either set the level automatically with Vocaster Two’s Auto Gain feature, or manually. Both methods
are described in the next sections.
Using Auto Gain
Vocaster Two’s Auto Gain feature allows you to get a good recording level without guesswork.
Activate Auto Gain by holding the Auto Gain button
; press the Host or Guest button according to which
microphone input is to have its gain set. Or, if you have Vocaster Hub open on your computer, by clicking on
the on-screen Auto Gain icon.
