Troubleshooting
My recording is too quiet.
iRig Mic Cast 2 gain is optimised in order to fit most speech recording situations. However, if the recorded signal
is too low you can use the App gain settings (if present) in order to reach desired level or, alternatively, move
closer to the sound source.
My recording is distorted.
Move the microphone away from the sound source, or use the App gain settings (if present) in order to reach
desired level.
I can’t hear anything from the headphone output.
Check that the app you’re using allows for audio-through from input to output.
Random noises appear during the recording.
This may be due to RF interferences: if the connected device sends or receives data wirelessly while recording,
noise could occur in the recording. Although the shells of iRig Mic Cast 2 have a layer of conductive paint that
shields most of radio interferences, some unwanted noises could happen. We suggest to turn on Airplane mode
and connect to Wi-Fi for streaming. If the noise persists, we suggest to disable also the Wi-Fi.
