Hi!
I want some advice. I bought myself a little project to learn more about microphones. It's a broken Aston origin and has a crackling noise, which sometimes does weird sizzles and small pops. I'll attach a recording of it. The capsule had a tiny tear or hole, so I replaced it with a new one of the same style. But the exact same noise is still there.
Visually, the circuit looks fine, and I can't find anything abnormal. There are no swelled capacitors, nothing. Other mics work as they should with my current setup, so it shouldn't be an issue. I have obviously tried different interfaces and cables, but the issue persists.
How should I go about troubleshooting it?
All the best,
Sam
