My microphone makes no sound?

Modified on Tue, 25 Jul, 2023 at 2:08 PM

We are sorry to hear that you are having issues with your microphone. 

 

Most microphones can be categorised into two types; Dynamic and Condenser. 

 

While Dynamic microphones function when connected to any mic level input, Condenser microphones require +48v phantom power to function correctly. 

 

If your mixer/interface has this feature, it is usually enabled via a button/switch labelled ‘+48v’ or 'Phantom Power'.  

 

If your mixer/interface does not have this feature, you will need to purchase an external phantom power supply to be able to use your microphone.
