I never thought about updating the drivers. I’ll give that a try. As for running it at a lower level, its not a case of clipping. It can happen at really low moments. Its very random. I can record over 3 hours of audio and have it not happen once. Then I’ll be recording one day, finish up, send the talent home then go to process the audio and voila it ruins a take that I only took once because it sounded perfect. Oh yeah I forgot to mention that, when I’m recording and listening through the mixer I don’t ever hear the problem, which is why I only find it in post process. But if I go back in and listen to the source file in Cubase where I originally recorded it, it’s there.
It’s a bit frustrating.

Thanks for the suggestions, I decided to just go with a roll of paper, much less work on my end. I’m on a pretty tight schedule to begin with.

Dave,
I know the camera was using the ME66 and not the built in one, I tested the mic, tapped on it lightly and could hear it in my headphones. My settings may be off, I don’t have the guides for them and was never taught what the proper settings are for certain settings. I just adjust until my levels read properly. In one instance the room probably had hard walls and the floor was tile, but the other time was in a small 20×20 room with carpeting and I still got bad sound. I appreciate your help.

Dave,
I was using only the ME66 on a boom floating above the talent, about a foot in front of their heads. When I playback the video I am getting the audio from the ME66, it just seems empty or like its being recorded in a big space. The levels on the camera are reading just fine, not too low and not peaking at all. Thanks for the headphone suggestion.

The reflection is from of the lights, when he moves his head back and to his right you catch it in his glasses. Timewise it will make more sense to reshoot. Thanks for your input I appreciate it.
