Re: Maybe for this group or if not...where
Georgina Joyce
Hello,
I am guessing it is a Radio Frequency issue. Your wireless headsets transmit at a frequency that either matches or is a harmonic of that frequency of your radio station and the radio is dutifully playing what is transmitted on that frequency.. As they are wireless devices you cannot add chokes or filters to them. You could try ferrite chokes on the radio but I suspect that it is the radio's antenna picking up the headset signal. So you could try a number of things to separate the 2 devices. Use an external antenna for the radio. Put a large amount of metal between the radio and headset creating a Faraday cage so that the headset signal cannot reach the radio's antenna. See if the headsets have an alternative frequency that they use. Or encourage your wife to use a wired set of headphones. At least to test the hypothesis. If so, and that station is on 780MHZ then you 'll have to look for a different set of wireless headsets that don't use the same frequency that the existing ones do.

Maybe for this group or if not...where
Morey Worthington
Evening all.
This is a audio related question, but has to do with a certain radio station and a wireless cell phone. I live North of Chicago Il. and listen to a ceertain powerful all news station on AM (WBBM 780). We have a phone answering system with 3 wireless headsets. If If I am listening to the Chicago station and the phone starts ringing, usually for the wife, a loud whisteling noise happens and stays there till the call is finished. This only happens on this one station . I have tried unplugging radio, the phone system, but no change. If I change the radio station to another, all is well. I have tried moving the direction of radio, it is a digital one, with nothing any different. I am really sorry to ask this group about my issue, but it is audio related. If not for this group, can someone , maybe, give me direction on where to turn?? Thanks, Morey Worthington

Re: a couple of questions re at8022 and at4022
Hamit Campos
It's not much different. The impedance drops to 250 I think it is maybe the self noise drops a bit and yes the most notable thing will be that on battery it can only take 120 DB SPL but on phantom it'll take 8 DB more. Not impressive but there it is. The quality goes up a bit too. With phantom it sounds a bit more like the AT-4021 it's based on. Neal had said he had made a menu tree for the H6 but I don't know what happened to it. neal.ewers@... is the email to try.

the 8022 in while the power is on. This is the case for any condenser. My guess is that it works fine on phantom power without the battery and in fact if you look closely at the spec sheet there may be a separate set of specs for phantom power operation and they may be augmented. Speaking of the H6 I would greatly appreciate it if someone could send us their notes on how to make various changes in the menu based parameters. There is a lot that can be accomplished by just counding the number of clicks and its crazy that each of us with an H6 has to figure it out independently with sighted help and make our own notes. Thanks Frank

Re: a couple of questions re at8022 and at4022
Hamit Campos
Sure thing. You could though I don't do this much connect the 8022 to the H6 with the XY snap off peace on and into the mini jack on that. You'll see because of the dip between the H6 the snap off front and the right arm onto which the right mic is mounted for the H6 why I don't do this much. Now I don't know how that front peace looks on the F8N but who knows maybe it's better there.

Yes Hamit it was an error on my point. I did mean the AT2022 and I'm hoping to receive that next week. As for the AT8022. I take your point in setting up Phantom, but I could use them to check them out using their own internal batteries. I also like your suggestion, that in the meantime, I could use the mini jack with the 8022 and try plugging this into my very little DS50. Now I think this will lead to surprising results. I'll let you know the outcome. Very best wishes. Andy.

Yes Gena. I've bought a pair of at 8022's and an AT 2022. Incidentally, a Youtube demo warns that never should the AT2022 be plugged into an XLr with Phantom turned on or the mic will be killed. The 2022 has it's own power in the form of a 1.5 Duracell battery. The AT 8022 does require Phantom so these XLR's should be supplied with power., but how much power? Very best wishes. Andy.

a couple of questions re at8022 and at4022
Andy
Hi Hamit and all.
Just a couple of questions guys regarding the at 8022 and the at 4022. I've taken Hamit's advice regarding his view that 2 at8022's placed apart in an x y form will give me a broader stereo field rather then 1 microphone. I decided this because when recording my local 7 piece band the sound source is quite wide. So I've a lovely new pair of these. Now am I correct in thinking that these mics require Phantom power? If so, dealing with the H6 first, I could allocate channels and 4 for these micks and turn Phantom power on? In terms of channels 1 and 2, I turn Phantom power off completely as I'm intending to allocate these channels to my new at 2022, which should arrive next week These will satisfy my Dawn Chorus birdcall recordings. I need to set up the H6, not even going near the F8N until I've sorted out the H6. Any advice would be very helpful. As my sighted wife will be following your suggestions, it would be nice for an idiots guide because she has absolutely no interest in recording. Hoping everyone is fine and looking after themselves. Very best wishes. Andy. -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Re: the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
Georgina Joyce
Hello Christopher,
Not sure to which generation you refer. Someone reported that the new 3rd generation had changed with software replacing physical controls. However, I do not know if this applies to the 2 i 2. What I can tell you is that the 2 i 2 2nd Generation is accessible. The gain knobs are physical controls. They have a little notch so you can feel their positions. I understand that there are indeed pretty LED lights that visually show something but as I can't see it doesn't bother me. Be sure you know what generation you are thinking of buying. The 3rd generation maybe the same as the second and it is just the larger 4 i 2 etc that has replaced the knobs for software. The manuals are readily available so grab one and read up on each unit.
