>Be me>Be that guy who was bitching about having a groundloop fault in his new mic setup a couple threads ago>Old mic recording I made a couple days ago sounded like this when I didn't have noise cancellation software active and disabling the groundloop: https://files.catbox.moe/8sa1b1.mp3>Go out of my way to order a custom-fabbed XLR cable with some high-end shielded connectors hoping it might do something to clear the groundloop>Now sounds like this: https://files.catbox.moe/18hwtt.mp3>Think it's thanks to my new cable>Go back to the old cable>Click is still gone>Also, may seem like a non sequitur but my neighbors in the next apartment look like they're working on moving out>mfw the groundloop was probably something they had plugged into the wiring for our building and buying the new cable didn't change anythingI'm kinda hoping the clicking comes back, but IS mitigated by the new cable, just to rationalize the purchase.
This shit's literally exactly why I hate my electronics job, I "fix" shit except I didn't actually do anything to fix it and then my supervisor is like "anon go fix that thing again" and I'm like "fuck you I don't even know what I did, it just started working again!"
