TROUBLESHOOTING

• No Sound Output: If there is no sound output, verify the cable connections to ensure they are securely plugged into the appropriate input/output ports. Confirm that your audio source and playback device are properly configured and powered on.
• Low Volume or Weak Signal: In cases of low audio output, check the microphone and input levels on the sound card. Adjust the volume controls accordingly and ensure that any external devices are functioning correctly.
• Audio Distortion: Audio distortion can occur if the sound card is placed too close to a high-volume sound source. Relocate the sound card to a safer distance or reduce the input gain on your recording or mixing device.
• Background Noise: Unwanted background noise can be attributed to interference from nearby electronic devices or noisy environments. Isolate the sound card from such sources and consider employing noise reduction methods.
• Handling Noise: Dynamic microphones, like the ones in the sound card, can be sensitive to handling noise. Use a shock mount or hold the sound card by the handle to minimize handling noise during use.
• Plosive Sounds (Pops): To minimize plosive sounds such as “p” and “b” sounds during vocal recordings, use a foam windscreen or pop filter when speaking or singing closely into the microphone.
• Feedback Issues: Address feedback problems by ensuring the sound card is not pointed directly at speakers or monitor wedges. Adjust monitor levels and microphone positioning to prevent feedback.
• Uneven Frequency Response: If you notice an uneven frequency response, examine the sound card’s diaphragm and microphone input for obstructions or damage. Ensure there are no obstacles affecting the sound quality.
• Intermittent Connection: Intermittent audio connections may result from damaged or loose cables. Inspect all cables for wear or loose connectors, and consider using alternate cables to troubleshoot the issue.
