Hi Chris,

Impedance doesn’t have a lot to do with audio sensitivity. You can wangle just about any impedance by how you design the output circuitry. I’ve known some ribbon mics that come in about 50-200 ohms. They are a lot less sensitive than condenser mics.

Condenser mics are more sensitive than Dynamic mics or Ribbon mics for one simple reason. Condenser mics use floating diaphragms. Dynamic mics have diaphragms, but they have a coil of wire attached to them, so they don’t move as freely to catch the higher frequencies. Ribbon mics have a similar problem. The mass of the ribbon is much greater than that of a condenser diaphragm, so it doesn’t move to those very high frequency sounds.

Mark, are you booming or working in a studio doing voiceovers?

Hi Daniel and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum.

Hmm, noisy. I like the Sound Devices Mix Pre D. It’s discontinued, but if you can fin a good one on the used market, it’ll be a good solution. Here’s one on eBay.

I just found the answer from someone on the Apple discussion forum.

Using Quicktime 10 I can record from different devices. The VERY small down arrow next to the RECORD button is used to choose the source. It worked!!!

The dirt gets into the ground of the circuits. If their grounds are connected, then you may have the same problem.

Hello Matthew,

Given the video, I think you need a person mixing and no AGC on the camera audio input.

Hi Sophia,

Are you on Mac or PC?

BTW, every one, I have a client who uses GB. In some desperation, I asked him to send me a copy of his GB session to see what I could do about getting the tracks out for my Pro Tools rig. I downloaded his session on my other computer that runs Logic and GB first. It opened in GB. Then I read that Logic could open the same GB file. I tried it. Boom! It worked.

Mark, I suggest you save up to get Logic Pro. What is it $299 now? It’s a very deep program with lots of included sounds and sequences. I used it to create this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7M2-GIW9Ls

Hey Rueben,

Depends on the dirty power supply and where it is in the chain.

In my situation some years ago, I think it was the dirty power supply that was leaking across the ground buss and into my lap top. YMMV,

Hi Bill, and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum.

Do you need type A, B or C?

Here’s a type C: https://bhpho.to/3cHkFTl

Saramonic is a relatively new player and I don’t have any personal experience with their line.
