Retronax Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Hello, I'm planning to start recording and I have a huge problem with my gear. When any noise goes through my microphone (Shure SM57) and my sound card (Line6 UX2) it goes out of tune, something like half a step lower, no matter if pod farm is on or not. People I chatted with have noticed it and it makes recording impossible. I don't know whether the problem comes from my sound card, my microphone or myself, and I would like some help, I have no idea what's happening.

phil_m Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Sounds like you have a sample rate mismatch somewhere. What DAW are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally all I'm using is a shure sm57 that goes into my UX2, which is connected directly to my computer. I just want to record myself in acceptable quality, so this is all i got right now. As for registering, I tried studio one 3, audacity and the windows vocal recorder (for tests) and they all recorded out of tune sound.

phil_m Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I believe the default sample rate for all those is 44.1 kHz, and probably the default sample rate for the UX2 driver is 48 kHz. Try opening up the Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices dialog box in the Control Panel in Windows, and you should be able to change it there. It should look something like this (varies a little depending on what version of Windows you're using). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retronax Posted May 16, 2018 Author Share Posted May 16, 2018 Okay, so I changed it to 48kHz like you said and it worked ! Thank you so much for your help ! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
