Greetings! I came here simply looking for the answer to a problem I was having with my newly purchased gear. I'm a complete beginner and I really don't know the first thing about recording audio, but I'm eager to learn! You lot were so friendly and helpful, so I thought I'd stick around.

Hehe, yeah, the support person said so as well. I didn't know about the phantom power thing though, but luckily I saw your first post about it before I had accidentally connected it with the PP on.

There, I went to the store and it turned out that the microphone was faulty. I got a new one and everything is working as expected now! Thank you all for the great advice you've given. If I ever run into hardware problems in the future, I have a neat little toolbox of different things to look...

I just bought a Scarlett 2i4 audio interface and an AKG C2000 microphone and when I plug it all in, I barely receive any signal from the microphone, from either of the mic inputs. I basically have to set the gain level to maximum before the LEDs even light up as green when I say something into...
