Hello everyone, hopefully someone has a solution or at least a tip.

Setting: Rode NT1, Cordial CPM FM (2.5m), Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen (when used on 48V and gain turned up to approx. 80%).

I have had the whole setting for 1.5 months now and unfortunately have the problem that the microphone output starts to noise after a certain time (i.e. the people in the Discord/TS/Twitch make me aware that my voice sounds like a robot). With the own reminder I hear that then also that it comes from me and not somehow connection-technically speak Internet) have already various things tried dis Dan again to fix. After a few attempts, it has now proven best if I simply turn the USB-C connection that is plugged into the interface by 180° and plug it back in, but after a certain time (1-3 hours) the same problem occurs again and I do the same thing again. Up to now, this has usually worked. But it can't be that this is the normal state? Does anyone have something similar or a tip on what I should do? I tried a different USB-C to see what it was like, but it was even worse than the original. I have also plugged in various USB connections in the PC, but it didn't help.

Accepted Answer

Had exactly the same problem, apparently it occurs when the GPU is fully loaded or the computer draws a very high voltage. The device then suffers from a lack of power supply via the USB socket. It shouldn't happen, but it does anyway. I then sold the thing and have since left this brand to the musicians.
