Hello Clyde and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum.

The noise could be from a cheesy mic or bad input design. Here’s their contact info: https://www.kentfaith.com/contact

AT $349.00 USD, better mics like the Sennheiser MKE-2 (https://bhpho.to/2N7gTXL) cost more than twice as much as your entire $129.00 USD kit. That should tell you something. Maybe you could find someone local and rent a decent lav for a day to find out. Where are you?

Ah, well a 4053B doesn’t like being eaten.

I don’t understand. The AT8537 is not a mic, but a power supply for a mic. I guess you’re using that with a lav and when boosting you get “noise.” That noise could be because the lav is less sensitive (smaller diaphragm) or because it’s an omni and picking up room/environmental noise. If worn on the body, yeah, that can be too far away especially in a noisy environment.

Even a lowly Shure SM58 with an added foam filter might be an improvement. Oh, except when you have guests who know nothing about mic technique and sit back too far. Then, the head mounted mics really work best. Like this Countryman E6.

https://bhpho.to/2MUhYlL

It’s an omni, but because it sits on the cheek, you really can’t pop it and it’s so close to the mouth that it gives you better level than a lav on the body.

make sense?

Hello Noam,

Radio Journalism, but on camera?

What mics are you currently using and how closely will they be worked?

If the visual is important, then why not head-worn mics instead of mics on a boom?

The “real radio” look is an EV RE20, RE27, Shure SM7, or Neumann in a suspension mount.

Also, historically, an RCA 77DX or 44B.

Watchoo got?

Hello Ina and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum,

My first thought is that it’s the result of serious data compression. You might try izotope noise reduction, but you’re already hearing the underwater sound associated with noise reduction. They have a de-reverb program that will make things sound different, but I don’t know it it will de-bug your voicetrack.

“We are attempting to record ensembles of 6 to 8 musicians, instruments plus vocals .. live in various locations and usually with audience mic as well. ”

Hello Joe,

I’m with Rob. If you actually need to mix, the f4 and f8 knobs are too small for me.

If you’re just setting levels, you’ll be OK.

Ha! If that’s your biggest gripe, you are doing pretty well!

Do you prefer wireless lavs over boom mics?
