Hey everyone !, i'm sharing an image of the audio waveform post recording a podcast. There are various instances where this random glitch is showing up which is causing some sort of a static sound to be very clear over my voice. Any help in resolving this would be highly appreciated . Thank you 🙂

Can tell you that it doesn't look like a grounding fault - the repetition rate for the clicks is too low. But it certainly looks like some sort of failure around the mic stage... but like SuiteSpot says, nowhere near enough information, I'm afraid.

Sorry for the lack of information. I am quite new to this. Let me elaborate a bit more.

 

  • I'm using a MacBook Pro mid 2015 model to record using Audtion CC. The Mic I am using is the Maono AU-A04.
  • The purpose for the recording is to record podcasts with guests using Zoom. 
  • To that end I am using iShowU audio capture as a digital interface to record the desktop audio (via zoom) and my own audio on a separate track directly through the mic.
  • For some reason due to the settings I am only able to record mono channel and not stereo (i'm not sure if this has anything to do with the issue I am facing)
  • The glitch/click is happening sporadically at various instances on only the track that I am recording direclty on my end.
  • A friend of mine who produces music says this might be due to cellular/radio intereference, but that is just a possible solution. 

 

I hope this sheds a bit more light on the issue.

You probably need to provide a heap more info regarding your setup and the scenario surrounding the issue before anyone would be in a position to assist
