I thought that I had this handled the last few recordings I made, but it has popped up again. Simply put, when I record without playing (or playing), the playback has a high pitched hiss that is quite prominent.
I am using a Shure57 mic connected to a Shure X2U USB adapter that goes right into the computer. In Audacity I have selected the Shure Digital microphone and the Sound Blaster speakers since I have a Sound Blaster sound card. I have tried different volume settings and nothing makes much of a difference.
I know how to sample the hiss and remove it after the fact, but I would prefer to control it up front if possible. If anyone with more experience can help, I would appreciate it.
