Has anyone ever experienced this problem here before? I made a recording with my LS-10 and the recording has dropouts in the audio about every 20 seconds or so. It totally ruined a good recording and dropouts are long enough that to remove them there are still jumps in the audio when listening. Here is the exact setup I used. I used a ritek class 6 16 gig micro SD card with SDHC adaptor, a pair of Nakamichi CM-300 mics with CP-2 capsules stock using neda 1611 9v batteries, The cabling was a Hossa Y cable 2 male XLR to 1 male 1/8 into the mic in connector of the LS-10. I recorded at 24/96 on the SD card with plug in power set to off and manual level settings. This is the first time using these mics in the field so it could be one of many things. I did run a test with them prior recording off the home stereo speakers and it worked fine for a 5 minute recording using all the same but the minute I took it in to the field it didn't perform as tested.
For starters I am going to swap out the the flash card with a different known good card I've used in the past. Second thing is this is the first time I've ever used the mic in jack on this thing. I've always used the line in with a preamp in the past could that be part of the problem and can a pair of battery powered mics be run strictly off the line in without using any sort of pre-amp for concert recording?
