Performing automatic calibration with other microphones will
produce unknown 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
documentation included with the Lexicon Microphone Kit to
ensure optimal microphone performance.
