What's going on? My microphone (Audio-Technica AT875R Short Shotgun Microphone-phantom power) is not working with this cable. It sounds really quiet

Did you run it through a phantom power source, such as http://www.amazon.com/Behringer-PS400-Ultra-Compact-Phantom-Supply/dp/B000FG795I ? Otherwise, yeah, it won't work.

Bobby, as I understand it, some mics need more voltage to work properly than others so I hesitate to say for sure without having used it myself. I can tell you for certain it works with the Audio Technica 875r and the Audio Technica AT899 Lav (which comes with it's own phantom power adapter anyway.. ) and it does just fine. In theory it should work with any mic that requires phantom power and uses a standard 3-pin XLR plug, but I admit I have not tried it with a lot of different mics.

If someone could help with a solution, would be awesome.. when i plug the mic on my H4N using the XLR cable, it gives a lot of noise for me too, but when i use it with USB on my pc, it's perfect.

I don't know? I don't connect it to anything that has a microphone. Does your microphone work on your device with a headset plugged in? It would be the same principal.

My guess would be a defective adapter plug, the mini to 1/4" converter. If it's not that, then it would likely be a defective unit or a damaged cable. Also make sure you are plugging it into the input, not the headset ;)

either theres a problem with the jack or you have to change some settings around as soon as u plug it in on my computer a window pops up and my computer has a list of options to.choose from because it didnt recognize it and when i chose mic it worked

You might try two things:1) ensure the volume adjustments on your headset and PC mic are adjusted properly2) check the software you are using, there may be some microphone settings in there as wellGood Luck

Not sure if yours is defective without using it myself, but I have no problems with noise when I use mine. The only way there is noise is getting feedback from cupping the mic around the top, etc. I love both of mine and have not really had issues. Hope this helps.

Actually, I bought the thing myself after no one replied, and it Indeed does not work with the TRS plug in a PC. The reason being, the microphone requires a voltage that can only come from an Olympus product. Building a phantom-power source for this mic is not practical nor feasible.After that ordeal, I bought the Audio-Technica ATR-35S Lavalier Microphone (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006I51V), and it works just fine, although a different Audio-Technica product would have been a better choice for me, their website has more products than Amazon.

You need to make sure that the plastic covering the battery has been opened ans discarded. Also, be sure that the Off/On button on the mic is in the "on" position and properly plugged into the camera base.

the microphone dose not working while in the case, the other party cannot hear me

The problem is the case for the microphones is made of alum. The only thing you can do is try to get tabs as tight as you can to the solder post. That was the only way I could make mine work the only other way I can think of is buy a different type of microphone that does no require the tabs on the case to touch the post. If you can't make it work write me back and I see if I can help you more.

I apologize for my English. you probably have an old standard phone headset desoldering. try to insert the other end of the wire in the headphones, but then the microphone will not work. device to work fully, you need an adapter CTIA to OMTP .

Not sure if that's a question or statement... Anyway, two things I've noticed using this device for a long time now. You must use the USB cable that came with it (or one IDENTICAL to it). I've used cables that fit and get terrible results. Second, check that your microphone cable and microphone are in working order. Hope this helps.

i just received it, and my sister could not hear me at all. Please help, if you know how. I don't think that the microphone works!

I would try to find the problem first. Do you need to replace the mixer? or is it the mic? or is a speaker blown? Find the problem before spending money on a solution.

As others said, the quality on this headphones are great, so probably the issue is in the port of the PC. Please try two things: first try with other headphones in the same PC and compare, and then try your Audio-technica in other PC. This way you can isolate the issue and only then contact your audio store to review the headphones.
