Harman AKG LYRA User Manual

HELPFUL TIPS
LYRA features the AKG 4-capsule Constellation Array that provides
four distinct user-selectable audio capture modes. Here are helpful tips
for selecting a microphone capture mode for your application.
A. FRONT: This is the most commonly used capture mode for recording. It works
well for voiceovers. podcasters. vloggers. gamers. vocalists. acoustic instruments
and web conferencing. In front mode. the Lyra captures audio sources from the
front of the mic while significantly reducing audio from the back and sides.
B. FRONT & BACK: This capture mode works particularly well for recording multi-
person interviews. podcasters. vloggers. multiple musicians positioned around the
microphone and for game sound effects recording. Sound will be picked up evenly
from all sides.
C. TIGHT STEREO: This setting utilizes two microphone capsules for tight stereo
pickup in front of Lyra. It is ideal for recording instruments with stereo spread.
performers positioned next to each other in front of the Lyra and recording any
other sound source(s) with a natural stereo spread.
D. WIDE STEREO: This capture mode provides greater stereo separation and
depth compared to Tight Stereo mode. This setting works exceptionally well for
ensemble and ambient recording where a wide left-right stereo image is desired .
