Mic noise Hi. Like 1 or 2 minutes after I start a conversation, a white noise comes up and stays for a long a while. Surely enough, my counterpart can only hear that noise. I've been trying to change the set up, but it keeps going. Any clues? Thanks for the help!

There appears to be help here and that forum is the best place to ask. It is a Post Factory modification according to this.

Hi, you didn't say if the mic actually passes sound? The C-1 is a condenser Mic & needs phantom power - switch on the rear of your mixer. If that's no help, what happens if you disconnect the mic, then turn the levels back up? Still hissing or gone? If it's gone then it's the Mic - must use a 3 wire cable, preferably XLR so it gets the phantom power. If the hiss is still there without the Mic then sounds like the mixer is faulty - try some of the other channels..... How loau is the hiss - just in the background or as load as a vocal "one, two" test? A few things to check anyway...... Good Luck!

well ... go to options, audio settings and under microphone choose your mic (it is possible that your usb cam has a mic too).
Basically if you see the level meters from the selected device moving, it's your counterpart that should set her speakers setting

However, try this:

Serious crackle or noise is a different problem, but a lesser, rustling crackle is very common with these mics. If you aren't looping the cable close to the mic, you will run into issues.

What you have to do, is put a small, 1/2' loop in the cable, making sure that the looped part of the cable is touching the initial part of the cable. Affix them so they stay that way throughout your performance/production. The closer you get the loop to the mic, the better.

As a test, take the mic, hook it up to equipment and listen on headphones. Start handling the mic, mainly by rubbing the cable, or rub the cable with various fabrics, listening for the rustle. Then put the loop in it and do the same thing. It is amazing how much more quiet it becomes. Try it with the loop half way down the cable and handle the cable above and below the loop. you can hear the rustling above the loop, but not below.

This model HAS to have that loop for quiet audio.

Hi,

This must be the right pinning

Pin 1 = shield / blue
Pin 2 = white
Pin 3 = red
Pin 4 = black

good luck,

Welcome to the world of STUDIO microphones. Super quality BUT you must have a studio to use them. You can't have any local speaker playing into them. You often use headphones lest your monitor speakers will feedback. At the high frequency capability of these mics, you can fry your amps with oscillations above what you can hear!

Yes, the wiring is different. Reverse the wires on pins 1 & 2, then reverse the wires on pins 3 & 4.

The wiring for you radio's mike is:

1- Audio
2-Ground (Shield)
3-Receive
4-Transmit

Depending on the vintage of your mike, the colors Uniden uses for these functions are white or yellow for audio, red is transmit & black is receive.

88, hi- the problem your describing depends on whether the red keyup light stays on while it's breaking up. I'll give you some possibilities to check as all of these could cause what your describing.
1- A broken audio wire in the mic cord.
2- Dirty mic switch.
3- The mic jack starting to come loose/or has rotated.
4- Circuit board ground screws starting to come loose.
5- Make sure all coax and jumpers are screwed on tight.
Thats about all I can think of right now, one of these is causing your problem.
Hope this helps you out, let us know,, Mechanic

hi there..if there is video and background audio coming out from the TV, and no voice recognition from the mic- then mic is the problem. I believed the problem is the "voice coil". This is a part that can be replaced- you can contact me and we can repair that.

two ways to check
remove the mic ball
the part which the mic ball is is covering is the voice coil.
try holding both terminals (black and white wire)- if there is feedback sound- it is open and need to be replaced
try using your tester- test the impedance- there should be 500- 600 ohms reading
