I experience a low annoying humming noise in the recorded microphone audio. Putting my hand on my PC removes it. Any suggestions that I can try?

The wires are probably gone bad. Or broke a bit try adjusting. Or could be feed back from your environment. The microphone is sensitive

I haven't run into this personally. But I'd imagine there's a two instances that would cause this. One - it's just picking up the noise of the keyboard like any other sound it picks up. Two - if you use a desktop stand and it's on the same surface and heavy typing sends vibration noise. With the latter, if it's a concern and you can't move the mic, you should be able to find a reasonable shockmount for it. With the former - get a quieter keyboard :)

I have two pairs and both had a humming sound when plugged into AV receivers. The humming sound was much lower when plugged into the high-end AV receiver.

I initially bought a high end laptop for audio recording and processing. Its mics were picking up hard disk noise which turned out to be a constant annoyance. With another desktop the recorded sound was picking up power transformer humming noise. I have voice recorders from three other brands similar to this unit. When run on battery these recorders do not pickup such noise.

If someone could help with a solution, would be awesome.. when i plug the mic on my H4N using the XLR cable, it gives a lot of noise for me too, but when i use it with USB on my pc, it's perfect.

I've had the same problem since I plugged it in. A small buzzing sound that gets louder. If I tap the earpiece where the mic arm is attached it goes away briefly. I sent that pair back, but the new set does the exact same thing. Any help would be appreciated.

not sure exactly, but have you tried using a different cable and/or mic to see if the hum goes away? perhaps one of them is faulty.

Sadly does not work well. The microphone volume has poor contact, now I can not use it anymore. What I can do?

Whenever you get that dreaded hum, be sure to check your ground connections.Could be something as simple as trying out a new instrument cable.I've even had some brand new cables with an open ground.You may have to re-solder the ends.

I had the same trouble. It worked once I downloaded the driver: http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/X2222USB.aspx under downloads.It could also be a ground loop that is causing the hum... are you using a laptop or a desktop?

You know I had to go and check! However, I have an 828LM and no hum whatsoever. Have you unplugged (the replugged) the unit and tested it away from other equipment for this humming noise?

Btw... On mine the menu option to turn audio on/off didn't get rid of the voice. I assumed it turned of the mic for recording audio. Maybe mines gotta bug... I donno. Or maybe I'm just an idiot ;)

Ok, it is presumed that your mic is set up properly! If you need to reset the unit constantly, return the equipment. It seems you got a "lemon."

It could just be the mic because it is not very good quality. I doubt it is picking up fan noise, this mic won't pick up a noise that quiet at all. You can try plugging it into the back of your computer instead of the front. The microphone jack in the front tends to pick up more interference from the internal cord, but the one in the back is a direct connection to your sound card. You could also upload your audio to Audacity (free software) to take care of any static or buzz you have. Check Google for how to eliminate the static, lots of people have made tutorials.

Yeah mine does the same thing,I found that moving the mic away from my mouth it helped and it quit doing that high pitched squeal.
