Setting up your microphone

Where do I plug it in?

The socket will often be designated by a small microphone symbol next to it, on modern desktops it will be pink in colour. It will generally be found on the front or rear of a desktop case or the side of a laptop.

Please ensure that the microphone is switched on and that it has working batteries if required.

Where do I place the microphone?

If you are using a clip on microphone, it can be attached to clothing or laid flat on a desk or chair. A standard microphone can also be placed flat on a desk or chair or held by a stand.
