not, try removing the device (or the
software if available) and
reconnecting it, or try plugging it into
a different USB port.
Make sure both ends of the USB
cable are connected properly and
securely and/or try a different USB
cable. If none of these solutions
work, please contact your dealer.
Check the volume settings to ensure
the volume is set to the correct level
and make sure the microphone isn't
muted in your software.

Use a windscreen (not included) to
prevent the sounds of wind or
background noise from being
captured.
Make sure the microphone is
