Condenser mic - Working on PC mic-in, but nowhere else. HELP  Reply with quote  

Howzit anyone reading this,

I have a cheapish $140 condenser mic. When using it on my PC (using the mic input [Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum Pro]) I get to use the mic to it's full ability. No hassles here.

When connecting it to any type of other audio equipment, it doesn't want to produce a sound!! I tried Phantom power on a Yamaha mixer, but this does not work.

The mic has a screw-off bottom piece, and takes one AA size battery. I have tried it with a battery, but the same story applies - NO SOUND.

Why is this mic giving me sound in me sound-card but not anywhere else??
Cheers Sad

What microphone is it?  Reply with quote  

What microphone is it? You say it is battery powered? Some mics dont acutally work when you turn on phantom power and have a battery in it. This supposedly can damage it I believe. Would be handy if we knew what mic it was though. And also what "audio equipment" are you referring too?
