Q2: If the mic has to hiss what can I do?
Answer: The reasons are manifold, we’re not sure what makes the mic perform bad, though we hope you can try out the suggestions below to see if they can help.
- Re-plug the cable into the microphone. If the cable gets loose, noise is easily generated or transmission of the signal may run into a problem.
- Reset the computer and re-plug the microphone into another port.
- Place it not too close to any power source or computer host. Check whether there’s smartphone nearby the cable.
- Set the on-body control of mic and input/output level of computer at 50%-75%. Volume is the culprit for noise.
(Windows: Right-click speaker icon on the right corner of computer→“Recording Device”/“Playback Device” →right-click “USB PnP Device”/default speaker →“Properties” →“Levels”. If there’s “Microphone Boost”, turn it to 0-10dB.
Mac: “System Preferences” →“Sound” →“Input”/“Output” →“Input Volume”/“Output Volume”) - (If using Windows computer,) disable all sound effects.
(Right-click the speaker icon on the right corner of the computer→“Playback Device” →right-click the default loudspeaker→“Enhancements”→click “Disable all sound effects”.)
Hope these methods could help eliminate noise and make the mic sound better.
Q3: If the mic disconnects itself without warning, what can I do?
Answer: There are two reasons for this situation. One is the poor connection. The other is that the cable is broken. If you have tried to replug the cable into the mic and plug the mic to another port, then it will be the problem of the cable. Just email us so that we can replace a new cable for you. Then the mic should work well again.
