have you never farted into the mic? sometimes there is particles released and it blocks that release from collecting on the mic screen.
Hi Robb
Well I'm always mixing things up, in the pix, a little old, thats a Blue Spark mic, great sounding, tight lowend and airy highs
Well.... This is what I run.......as of now....lol
In this order in the audio chain
Mic- MXL V69 with an upgraded tube-nos Amperex Bugle Boy12AU7 , I mix it up with a Blue Spark mic at times, both sound awesome but the v69 has a more of a warmer rich sound which I love.
Pre Amp- Electro Harmonix 12ay7 with upgraded tubes, nos Mullard 12at7,Rca 12au7 black plates.
Exciter- BBE 882i I love this thing and what it does..lol
Eq- Speck ASC 4 band parametric eq, Transparent, No color no mojo, surgical, precise.
Compressor- DBX 166xs
Effects- Behringer dsp 2024p ads airyness.
Radio- Old school Modded 148gtl
Using balanced xlr cable throughout the chain.

Most of that gear is some fairly high-end stuff. Especially for CB radio. Wonder if anyone on this forum knows what a BBE process is and what it does - for that matter.
The tube mic uses a real tube that gets real voltage to operate as they did decades ago (I have/use the same one BTW). So does the Electro/Harmonix tube preamp. The EQ is 'Top Drawer' too - wow! The Pro VLA II is a decent compressor. Some have said it is ". . .most ridiculously underpriced and overperforming pieces of gear - ever". Never used one; but if it uses opto-compressor circuitry - then it can't be bad. Not a bad job - at all!
My only question is: "why haven't you got a ham rig or a license yet"?

Short subject change...
What's that 4040 dude from Florida use?
I hear him on 38L all the time. He sounds pretty good. I only run stock stuff, as I am not interested in HiFi audio, but I do like the sound as long as it ain't parked a few kc from me on a crowded band.
