Mic with crackling noise - impossible to hear anything else

Cubase
1

Hello everyone

I’ve connected a mic (Audio-technica) AT2035 to front port N.1 (D-PRE mic/line) the UR-22C box. I’ve tried to switch the +48V and without but in both cases, when I unmute my audio track connected to the mic in Cubase 11, I have a constant crackling noise (as if something is not well plugged). It’s not a background noise knowing that I can’t hear anything else than that constant crackling noise when I try to record something.
Did anyone experience that issue already?

Thanks very much in advance and good afternoon
Nicolas

It could be a bad cable or a cable that is not properly attached to microphone.

That’s the first thing I would check.

Also maybe try to engage the 80Hz cutoff switch on the AT 2035 and see if that helps.

Thanks very much, I did not try that yet, thanks for the advice, it will hopefully solve the issue.
Have a nice day
