First off, here is my setup:
Adobe Audition 1.0 Software
Samson CL7 Condenser Mic>
Behringer Eurorack UB1202 Mixer>
Delta 44 Breakout Box>
Soundcard
Delta 44 Breakout Box (two outs)>
Samson C-que Headphone Amp
============================
The other day I was recording some vocal tracks over a pre-recorded guitar track and all of the sudden the stereo sound drops out of my mic and it goes mono. It does this for a few seconds and then pops back into stereo. It does this quite a bit. I swap out mic cables and it does it again. I try both cables in the other two channels on the mixer, again, it goes out.
At this point, I'm convinced my mic is going out. I order this kit from Sam Ash (MXL2003 & MXL603) to replace the Samson. Out of the box, I hook them up and the issue seemed to repeat itself. I swapped out my balanced cables on the breakout box and that seemed to fix the problem. But then I plugged the Samson mic back in to test it, and it did it again.
I just don't know what to think here as to just what the problem is. The other issue is that the MXL2003 mic in the kit is really bad. It sounds like I was recording vocals in a tin can. I'm just gonna send this things back and try and get another Samson since I need one anyways.
So here's the deal, anyone have any clue where this problem could be? I'm really frustrated and at a loss here. Any help is grately appreciated!
Thanks everyone!
