Hi Nickus! I have used the rode NT1 mic sevel times. Never with out problems. I am using sonar 8,53 with the cakewalk VS100 combined console and soundcard. It has a build in phantom power. I droped the rode in this weekend and used a Shure SM 58 mic without any problems. Luckly it was a rock vocal that we recorded so it came out very nice. I have been thinking if there could be a problem with Phantom power as it's a general problem. I have been on the Sonar site and seen a new opdate for the VS100 console and will try to get that done to se if that makes a difference. Any other suggestions would be nice! Take care Dennis -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] På vegne af Nickus de Vos Sendt: 22. september 2011 13:35 Til: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Emne: [ddots-l] Re: Problems with Rode NT1 mic Hi a few questions. 1. Is it a new mic if not is this the first time it happens? 2. Are you applying the rite phantom voltage 48 v and not less or maybe more? 3. Have you tryed it on a different pre amp and what's the results? 4. Have you tryed another mic on the channel and what's the results. Yes the NT1 gives a hot signal but it's not so hot that you'll peek without any gain on a propper pre amp, there might be something wrong with it.
