    Condenser Mic Newb, what is this sound?

    ArcAxis, thank you for the detailed response. I got the Nady the same time as the mic, all the gear is new. Unfortunately, the schematics are a bit over my head. :confused: The Nady gets power straight from a wall outlet, or wall outlet --> power strip --> Nady. I emailed line 6 asking what the...

    Condenser Mic Newb, what is this sound?

    I have AKG C214 that runs through a Nady SMPS-1X phantom power to a line 6 UX1 into my laptop running reason 7.
