Re: 2 voices 2 channels headaches

Bit late to the party, is there any of that nice cake left?

No offence Nick but with a problem like yours you should include all the gear you use in your opening post. Eg: your E6 mics first appear in post 6 but you don’t say which version you’re using. There’s different sound pressure input levels for each.

The E6 Earset is available in three sensitivities to match a wide range of applications:
Model E6DW5 for general speaking Sensitivity: 6.0 mV/Pascal
Equivalent Acoustic Noise: 24 dBA SPL Overload Sound Level: 120 dB SPL
Model E6DW6 for strong speaking and vocals Sensitivity: 1.9 mV/Pascal
Equivalent Acoustic Noise: 29 dBA SPL Overload Sound Level: 130 dB SPL
Model E6DW7 for strong vocals and monitors Sensitivity: 0.60 mV/Pascal
Equivalent Acoustic Noise: 39 dBA SPL Overload Sound Level: 140 dB SPL

With the wrong sensitivity for the voice you’re recording, I agree with you when you say you think that’s where your problem is, you’re overloading your E6 mics.

Paul’s right and we’ve seen this problem before, peak distorting mics in the audio chain just exacerbate the problem down the line, and that’s where many folk go looking for it, after the recording is finished ... but by then it’s too late to fix it.

Cheers.
