If sibilance or “popping” occurs, position the microphone  
not directly in front of the mouth but slightly to the side.  
In order to prevent feedback, position monitor loud-  
speakers so that they are located in the angle area of the  
highest cancellation of the microphone.  
In order to prevent interference due to crosstalk between  
adjacent sound sources, try to position the microphone  
so that the interfering sound source is located in the  
angle area of the highest cancellation of the microphone  
(approx. 150°; see polar diagram).
