How do I go about doing this?ĭouble edit: oh holy jesus i just got the sound to go from the pc through the mixer by accident you guys have no idea how happy i am this thing has consumed my life for the past few days. Does this mean that it is working? There was also a static sound when i touched the mic and it stopped when i pulled my hand away.Įdit: ok at this point i would simply settle for hearing audio from my pc through my mixer (headphones in mixer). The first two sets of green lights came on.

I tried turning the Trim all the way up and setting the master volumes to 0. This microphone requires this type of cable to work. You are allowed to have two or more XLR microphone cables one after the other to get extra length.

No adapters, attenuators, splitters, etc. I need to be very clear that there needs to be a real XLR microphone cable between the mixer and the microphone.įemale three pins on one end and male three pins on the other. My microphone has a tiny green light that tells me when the Phantom Power is working. I wasn't able to get good microphone information. If you can't get it that far, then there is a serious problem. HA!!! It should be possible to get the little microphone channel red Clip light to come on - ignore the meters and faders on the right of the mixer. Turn the top knob Mic Gain all the way up. Plug the microphone in and turn the phantom power on. Your microphone lead must have XLR connectors at both ends (1 male into the desk and 1 female to the mic) The output level from the mixer channel is then adjusted by the channel fader, and the overall level is controlled by the 'Main' fader.ĭuring normal operation you would expect to have the channel fader and the Main (Master) fader set at around 0. The gain will probably need to be set quite high, but the red 'clip' light should not light up - if they light up then the gain is set too high. The initial microphone amplification is controlled with the 'Gain' control. If the red LEDs light up, then the level is too high. When the signal level is in the correct range you should see the green LEDs light up and perhaps the yellow LED occasionally flash. The green and yellow LED below the two red ones indicate the normal operating range. The word 'clip' near to the phantom power button refers just to the top two red LEDs and indicates when the level is too high.

My plan after getting hte microphone to work is installing a second pci sound card so I can get the music/skype sorted and go from there. I tried the steps in this thread and it didn't do anything but put static sounds in my headphones. I have the 'Main Mix Out' connected to my sound cards line in and I can't get any recordings to work either (I have the recording mixer selected on line in). I see no green lights on the little 'clip' area. My problem is that I have the microphone connected into input 1 and I simply can not get any sound to get picked up by the mixer. I bought all the equipment and thought I would be able to read up on a few tutorials and get the hang of things but it's proven pretty difficult.Īt the moment I have given up on trying to get skype calls and music to play through my mixer and am just focusing on getting the microphone to work. I am attempting to launch a live ustream radio talk show that takes skype calls and plays music.

I am really new to the whole world of mixers and professional audio. I am having major problems with my setup.
