greets folks, i'm having issues I need help with.
my 610 is acting funny. i've used it with success in the past. i haven't really used it much lately but i'm trying to get back into it. i haven't changed anything in the setup i had when it worked. just got a couple new mics to test out.
i open up garageband (for now) to do a mic test and everything sounds warbly and slightly distorted no matter what i do. along with intermittent pops. i could just be sitting doing nothing, reading a forum post and get a random pop.
it doesn't seem to be a clipping or levels issue. this happens with the 2 mics i have now, and they worked when i tested them before purchase,
same issue also when i plug a guitar in and use amplitube. just warbly sound and weird distortion.
now, i'm using a condenser for the mic tests. i have the phantom power on. doing the test, getting weird sound so i turn the phan power off, and the mic slowly fades out (which is fine). but then i leave the unit on as the sound card and toss some music on and i still get those intermittent pops, even with the mic off and nothing else plugged in, and even with no music on....? what gives?
what are some things i could try to troubleshoot?
