Post by clavicle06 » Mon May 12, 2008 7:12 am

hi, beginner here.

rcently bought a griffin imic for recording vocals with my suresm 58. but on myu recording i have a humming sound which i cannot get rid of!

it ruins what i record as soon as i turn the volume up ALL you hear is the humming sound.

anything i can buy or get that would eliminate this for me?

What setup you using? Laptops frequently have a problem of ground loops, also avoid cheap plug extensions (you no the things you plug into one socket and it converts them into four etc). Try buying a GROUND LOOP ISOLATOR and running your signal through that before your soundcard or whatever.
