Quick Audio Help
IP: 04C7 1AC3
ok, so recently ive started havin a slight buzz in all my record takes.... i work with that mxl 990 mic, a audio interface, and a mic chord..... i only say this cuz i know it has to be one of these things that is causing this...
now, i thought the little buzz (which is really hard to hear unless u mix the track without doing noise reduction) has considerably harmed the quality of my tracks, well atleast to me since im the engineer.... its like making every record take alot raspier wen im done mixing, which wasnt that big of an issue UNTIL i had a girl featured on a track to sing.... it makes her sound like she has a fuckin sore throat i was just wonderin if anyone has any suggestions to wat may be causing the buzz... perhaps even its some weird touching/crossing of wires in my mess of computer cords under the table... -One |

too many variables to pin point anything "quick". could be a lower recording resolution, could be an audio driver (since you're a windows user), could be your wires broken, could be that shitty ass mic finally took at shit, and that's just what came off the top of my head

^that was a long time ago son, a lot of mics came out since then. and the 990 is made for deeper voices but to say its a good mic, shit son.. its good for a sub $100 mic, but there's still mics whos prices came down into its territory that are way better than it for the money, like the co1. i wouldn't reccomend a 990 to anybody today. just the way shit is.
once upon a time a ford escort was a good car.

what's good about it? its rich, its crystal clear, and the sound is warm and real, its not processed. do i know anyone that uses it? yes, i use it, well.. its a variant of the mic i use, it happens to sound identical and costs about $200 less. do i have links to it, no take your outcome into your own hands and look for it your self.

Man, none of that shit matters
buy a decent mic, then learn how to mix good. otherwise that, go to a studio

Condenser Mics produce self noise which can be picked up when recording low vocals, try having your girl sing louder to hide it.
