I occasionally bumped into this dude and he has an impressive number of videos. To me, it is a case of an obvious idea to have, once someone had it.

Thank you for pointing me at bias voltage, I've never heard of that. The text explicitly mentions condenser mics requiring that voltage. Does this also apply to dynamic mics?

Besides, even if the signal is nasty, I would like to receive that in the system. So if this is an issue, it's currently rather a side quest.

That might be the case, but despite this, I would like to receive the miniscule signal I can loop back in my system. But do dynamic microphones require phantom power?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

It's a dynamic mic. I feared the same, but the fact that I can hear something using the loopback suggests that phantom power isn't the cause, right?

 

I got a microphone connected via a XLR adapter to the rear mic jack of my mainboard. The audio dialog of KDE seems to detect that, as does not mark it as not connected (which it does for the front mic and line in). But selecting the audio device as source does not produce any useful sound. What makes you sure that the mic work, you may ask? If I enable the loopback in alsamixer (and pump up the boost), it works. Unfortunately, that is the only way I can get sound out of that.

It seems, as if the system realizes two possible sources from the audio device. But there is no option GUI wise where I can select the second input to test if that helps.

Does anyone have any clue what I could do to use that mic?

Kid you not, that was my first reason to adopt it (next to having a short name).

While your argument is valid, most bash users I know are lazy bitches and tend to alias commands which require to type more than 5 letters. I guess NuShell lower the bar for NuUsers, but of I have to remember either single letters or puppy it through longer commands, I world opt for single letters.
