telove Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Hi all, I have a Toneport UX1 and it was all working great with the same setup years ago, but I took it all apart when I moved house. Now I want to set it up again. I have it set up so I can record guitar from the Instrument input, so the device and connection is all working. But I get no signal from my microphone. I have a condenser microphone that goes into pre-amp, which has a phantom power switch (I tried both settings). Then it goes out from the preamp into the mic input on the UX1 with the xlr cable. It was working a few years ago but now it isn't and I am not sure why. The mic, preamp, and cables were all new when I last used them a few years ago so I would be surprised if something died, but I have no way of testing anything. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Ham Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Could it be something as simple as selecting the mic input instead of the instrument input? I still make that mistake occasionally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telove Posted September 25, 2019 Author Share Posted September 25, 2019 Ha you legend, thank you! That fixed it. I previously used Gearbox which was my interface with the UX1 but I lost the original CD and it wasn't available to download, so I am using Pod Farm now which I am new to. But I tried all the buttons and found a dropdown for the input :) Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz_Ham Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Good good. For casual users who are barely computer literate like me, the small things still catch me out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
