I recently upgraded from a USB C-1U to an Antlion Audio ModMic 5 which uses an aux cable instead. So after it arrived from Amazon I plugged it into my computer, fired up Audacity to test it out and all I heard was this ear breakingly loud and harsh static that plays back no matter what is plugged into the jack, be it the mic, an empty male to female aux adapter or a pair of headphones even. The jack is located on the front I/O of my NZXT S340 Elite Computer case, which is connected to my ASRock Fatal1ty Z370 Gaming K6 motherboard of course. I tried all of the rear jacks (that are directly from the motherboard) and none of them worked. Does anyone know how I can solve this without spending too much more money? Is the issue the front i/o of my case? Is it my motherboard? Should I buy an amp/preamp/dac and plug that in instead? Give me your suggestions and tell me what you think the issue is. I don't know much about audio but I can find my way around a computer as I put it together, if that helps solve the issue.
