So funny... I can't understand how this is possible
Hi there. I'm user of kX Driver.
I recently began to record acoustic guitar with AudioTechnica ATM63HE. However, because of its low gain makes recording so small, I tried raising gain higher, but I noticed something funny. So, I plugged microphone off and let Microphone Boost (+20dB) After then, what I could hear from Microphone that wasn't connected was RADIO!! I don't even know how this is possible. Simply, there is no single radio software I'm using. And when I turn angles of microphone jack, I could vary the volume. Also, if I bang microphone jack, I could hear it zipping. If I touch the end of microphone jack with my finger or my lips, radio sound will be amplified, and then I got shocked. Can anybody tell what the heck is wrong with this microphone jack, or how to solve this problem, so I can begin recording acoustic guitar into my computer!!

Try to change the cable. Looks like bad shielding.

Our recording stuff is in our attic and occasionally we pick up a radio station also, we just quit recording til it goes away. You should get a mic preamp to boost the signal of your mic and then use the Line in which is a cleaner signal than the Mic in.
