Troubleshooting

No sound or low audio.

Check the cable connection, ensure the microphone is correctly plugged into your device, and verify the audio input levels in your recording settings.

Audio sounds muffled.

Make sure the windscreen is properly installed and clean. Check for any obstructions.

Excessive background noise.

Ensure you are recording in a relatively quiet environment. The directional pickup helps, but it is not a noise cancellation device.
