Digital Microphone Manager

What is Digital Microphone Manager?

Digital Microphone Manager is a software application that supports the operation of digital microphones (supported

models) from Audio-Technica. It enables users to create projects, configure microphone and audio settings, as well as

set a microphone coverage range that suits the layout of rooms where microphones are actually installed. It also enables

users to perform real-time editing and display talker positions in an online environment, a useful feature for on-site

adjustments of advanced settings.

Supported models & recommended environments

Digital Microphone Manager is designed for use with computers. It cannot be used with tablets or smartphones.

Connecting Digital Microphone Manager and

microphone

Connecting microphones

1Set the computer to automatically obtain IP address settings.

2Connect the microphone and the computer on which Digital Microphone Manager is installed to the

same network.

The microphone ships from the factory with “IP Config Mode” set to “Auto”.

3Launch Digital Microphone Manager.

Depending on the operating system and security software being used, confirmation screens requesting

communication authorization may be displayed during setup. When these appear, authorize the

communication.

To connect using a static IP address, set “IP Config Mode” to “Static”.

If you cannot connect with the microphone

If you cannot connect with the microphone, check the following:

Digital Microphone Manager might not work properly due to the firewall or security software firewall of the computer

being used. In this case, check the firewall settings and authorize communication with Digital Microphone Manager.

Digital Microphone Manager uses IP multicast. Make sure that your multicast IP address/port number is not blocked

in your network environment.

To maintain stable connection to the microphone synced to Digital Microphone Manager, we recommend not

connecting to multiple networks. For example, if the microphone is connected with a wired LAN, disable the Wi-Fi

connection. If multiple networks are connected, the microphone may not be detected or the connection may be lost.

About firewall settings

1Click “Windows Security” from Start menu.

2Click “Firewall & network protection”.

3Click “Allow an app through firewall”.

4Confirm that check marks have been entered for all domain, private, and public items in Digital

Microphone Manager.

If check marks have not been entered, apply check marks for all items.
