- Treat the Pluggy as an omnidirectional plant mic: place it close to the sound while keeping it hidden and protected.
- Confirm the XLR input supplies the required phantom power, then monitor for handling or surface-transmitted vibration.
- Use a stereo bar and a matched second mic for spaced ambience; document capsule spacing and orientation for repeatability.
- Add wind protection outdoors and never expose the capsule directly to rain, dust, or high-velocity air.
