Be sure the wiring is correct as to the XLR 3 and the Foster 8 pin connector.

XLR pin #1 to Foster pin #8

XLR pin #2 to Foster pin #1

XLR pin #3 to Foster pin #7

Be sure in the Config menu, FP.H source is selected and Bias is OFF.   See page 13 in the manual.

I use a Behringer XM8500 or Shure SM-58 very successfully.   Both sound good but a bit different.

I have tried all of the configurations possible in the MAIN menu with no joy.? Before I break down ( and suffer my XYL's consternation) to buy a compatible Heil product, does anyone have any suggestions?? I have the same setup I am trying to use on a Heil proset with no issues.? I suspect the mic is the primary issue since it is not an electret mic. Any suggestions are appreciated.
