On playback, I can hear my guitar instrumental, but also my own breathing. How do I stop the mic picking this up?

Follow the directions to set the mic sensitivity. I can only assume that you're recording "un-plugged" if you're not singing while you're recording it could be that you are just too close to the recorder. Try controlling your breathing better!

That's a common problem. I tend to be rather noisy at times myself unless I pay attention. I also run into in the studio quite often. I coach people in the art of breathing properly. It's not that hard.

no but during you're recording sessions it will cancel out background noise to the point where only your voice is heard

Mine has no discernible self noise that I can perceive on recordings with the mic and a Fostex FR2LE.

Depending on the mode you choose, the microphone is very directional. As long as the fan is not behind you or in the direction you have the mic set to pick up, you shouldn't hear the fan unless you have it blowing right on the mic.

Just plug it in into the mike symbol on your computer. I had to turn the volume way up in order to hear what was being recorded.

use a microphone with a stereo jack, like one used for a computer. my unit grounds out when using the mic jack.

I am going to guess your mic is phantom powered? if so i would see if it says that in its description, I really am not sure otherwise

I have also had this issue and I think the part of the rubber casing that covers the microphone muffles the sound. I actually have got in the habit of pulling that part open to talk! It's kind of a pain - I might cut it off!

Sorry Nick but the mic is a 1 button click process. It ends and starts calls and pauses and plays music. So if you want to pause music is should be fine.

It's because the sound of the switch is over 65 dB because it is right next to the mic. Try sliding the switch very gently, that works for me.

This has not happened when I used mine. Most of my use has been with TV. Good luck in finding a solution to yours. Extraneous noises are very distracting.

If you are recording your voice, turn the second switch with the lines to the straight line, and the first switch turned to 0 to reduce background noise. If that doesn't work I would simply try recording in a quieter, smaller space.

I can hear it too. However, I have started pulling the mic away from my face some and using the mute button more often.

There is a microphone mute switch on the volume control. Muted sound has to be done via hotkey/desktop action/etc.

I recently had to change my battery b/c I left the mic on over night accidently. I disconnected all of the bands that keep it suspended so I could have easier access to the front where the battery is. There is a groove for your finger to push the cover up and out, it took a lot more force than I wanted to be using on my new mic!

I'm not sure about that. I couldn't find a setting for that, just make sure the "Loop Recording" is not set to "Off". Other than that I don't know what the issue might be, sorry.
