Hi, The difference is clearly because one mic is condenser and the other one dynamic. I own such a mixer model and I can say it is a good unit and I can't see any reason to change it. It is the same in my case, when I connect a Rode Procaster dynamic and a Sontronics STC 20 which is a large diafragmcondenser mic. I have the same behaviour with another mixer Soundcraft Signature. That's right, when you use a dynamic mic you need to go with the gane level up to the very end. Also, if the compressor it is not engaged that may cause your headphones level to not be very saturate with signal. I would recommend a DBX 286s vocal processor which is around the same price like cloudlifter and have some features plus and a very good preamp which makes the job like the cloudlifter or even better. But before going to invest in hardware try to have a little play with nobs into your mixer and settings into you DAW. Probably a good purchase should be a headphones amplifier?

I have the following set up, Yamaha MG 10XU mixer/audio interface, sure sm beta 58 dynamic microphone, a peavey small condenser microphone. what is happening is when I plug my peavey into my yamaha I then can toggle between hearing my monitars/ headphones by using the USB button on channel 9 /10 but when plugging in the sure microphone I can no longer do this. Why is this and how can I get the same results as the peavey? Also I have to run my gain almost really hot to get any sound out of either microphones; the peavey, isa phantom powered one; the sure is a dynamic micriphone. Would it be better for me to get a different audio interface/control surface? or should i invest in getting a cloudlifter? If the cloudlifter has anyone had any good luck with them? And if another audio interface/control surface which should I get? Please let me know. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pro Tools Accessibility" group.
