416T Noise


echo

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

I have been getting some low level interference on my 416T. It's sporadic and doesnt last long. My guess would be that it's wireless interference. Just wondering if this a good assumption and what the best way to rectify the problem is.

Cheers!

For T-powered mics, noise is more likely to come from the power supply than directly into the mic. One reason mixer manufacturers don't offer T-power is because it would require lower noise specs than their power supplies deliver (but good enough for everything but T-powered mics).

 

How are you powering the mic?

I've seen many poorly designed T power supplies that try to use a voltage regulator or Zener Diode to limit voltage.

These all can generate noise in the T power Sennheisers if not properly filtered.  I have also had Video Transmitters cause interference or High Voltage Neon signs  but the mic body has to be pretty close to the source of the interference (a foot or 2) for it to be audible.
