My microphone plug has stopped working. if i wish to use it i need to wiggle it around and hold it in place. when doing this it makes a nasty crackling sound over the speakers, similar to when u first plug something in. its so annoying as my mic is effectivly useless. i cant mc anymore, or record my voice over tracks. i was just wondering if this is a common problem and if there is any way to fix it without claiming on the warrenty, as i would need to pay postage costs. I'm not too chuffed about this as i have only had it since xmas!!!

Cheers

You can start by checking the wire connections
What kind are they (1/4 or xlr)?

I'm not sure. i asked in my local electronics shop for possible reasons and they said to take it in and they'll look at it for free (which they did). they said that it was probably the connections which may have fractured but when they looked it wasnt. they soldered it anyway, but its still no better :o( im not too chuffed with this...

it's the console !!!
i have the same problem, it comes from the console, maybe a contactspray will help.
i don't use the mic of the console.
this is also another f*cked-up-thing of the console.

the mic seems to work, but when i come to recordin with it no sound records from the input. Ive tried mcing then droppin the music gain but i cant hear my voice when the music vol is up or down. i put the new drivers on so i dunno if its that or not, but i cant put the original drivers on cos the cd theyre on is in wales (where im a student), or not till i go back anyway. do u know where i can get older drivers from?
