My Microphone is making fart noises!

Local Moonman

Its been going on for about a month now and now, from time to time, my microphone is making sounds that resemble farts! currently im running this setup. and form my observations, i think its not the DAC since when i unplug the xlr cable, from the DAC, the farting sounds stop.

Please tell em what I can do ;_;

You have to cut down on the beans :P

Oh that's a shame. I hope the mic okay. It's a real beauty. It is ultra sensitive.

I'm still running on my core i7-920

I think he's saying it might not be easily recordable, he'd have to get his mic and stick it between the earcups.
