I was using this mic:
Konig CMP-MIC10 microphone
There was something wrong with the internal cable connections so it broke. It was using a usb connection.
I bought this one:
Turbo-X PLM-100
which is better than my previous one but it uses a jack in cable connection.
The issue is that it sounds awful... too deep like I'm in a cave! I think it's my on board sound card. which is a realtek high definition audio. I tried connecting it to my 24bit external sound blaster sb0270 (I know it's an old one but I'm really satisfied with the sound) and it sound a little better but still deep.
So I was thinking of either buying my previous mic again which I was not satisfied so much with but it sounded a lot better than my new one. Or buying a new external or on board card and then trying connecting my new mic and customizing the sound with it's software.
Support for the external sound card by creative sound blaster has been seized a long time ago and I'm using the latest modified drivers. There are some options that are well known as being locked for this card which I haven't found any info on how to unlock (Bass boost, CMSS, EAX, EQ).
Also was looking through the
sound blaster website.
And ASUS Xonar Echelon U7 7.1 USB sound card external - Echelon Edition:
Please help me decide what to purchase for crystal clear sound recording. My previous mic or a new sound card? And what you think is the best option! Thanks!
