Title: Concierto recording...!!!!??????
Post by: Leifern on September 06, 2005, 06:08:50 PM

Hi,

I'm having problems recording anything with my Concierto.. Just using the ConciertoRecorder. I tried plugging in the PC desktop microphone, but that doesn't work.. No signal in.. But it makes a noise as i plug the microphone into the "IN" on the Concierto..

Any ideas?

I know nothing of the software, but is there a Gain control? Sounds like its low, or set to LINE not MIC or something like that. If i remember correctly, LINE level is much higher than MIC level.

Thats if you can even adjust it  :roll:

  I had that problem as well.  The Concertio microphone input is mono (2 metal segments), and I was using a microphone with a stereo connector (3 metal segments).  Give that a check.  - Lars

Well.. I'm using a standard PC sterio Desktop microphone.. The ones that come with your PC, or that you can buy for £5 or something (looks like a stick). Could that be it.. It says in the manual that even if using a stereo mic the Concierto will pick up mono.. Hmmm.. Did it work when you started using a mono plug?

The recorder has the ability to record stereo.. Will it just double the mono signal?

YES, I solved the problem by using a microphone with a mono connector, instead of the stereo.  Do you think I'm just a mean troll here posting for pleasure? :o  - Lars
