SP-FORUMS

Hmm I just used my friend's sm57 and the sound is noticeably cleaner. Is the problem still the cable or maybe just my mic? Would the sound be better if I switched to the TS cable?

So the cable I should get is the XLR to 1/4" TS unbalanced right?

I just hook up my sm58 to the XLR and then the 1/4 to the mic input. I think there is something wrong with the mic so I'll check out my friends to test it out.

I just bought a XLR to 1/4" TRS cable and as soon as I started using it I noticed that there was a noticeable buzz unless I touched the tip of the cable. If I turn off the external source and mic buttons, the noise goes away. Is the noise supposed to be there or did I get the wrong cable?
