He did the voice test with the microphone backwards. I wonder if the product failed because of bad instructions.

This is the problem. This is a quote from the top of page nine of the instructions. Specifically, when you point a cardioid mic directly at the sound source (on axis) you will get the best frequency response, how- ever when you start pointing the microphone slightly away (off axis) you will notice t...

I have been speaking directly at the top of the C03U That's different from speaking at the side of the microphone toward the top which is recommended. Everybody knows how a rock band microphone works (that's from Shure Promotion. Read the tattoo) RockBandMicrophneAndTattoo.png So everybody assumes ...

What's confusing to me is why it's happening in the first place?

We don't really know what "it" is yet. That's what we're doing now.

Koz

That was not good. Don't do that any more. Now you know why the audio engineer is always wearing headphones. https://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/FieldShoot-w-Boom-650.jpg I never thought I'd say these words: The far side voice is fine, but yours...is not fine. The Party Line is we can't take out...
