Condenser microphone and Teamspeak 3... what's going wrong?

[rexehuk]

Hello all,

I own the following microphone - Sony ECMMS907.CE7 - and use teamspeak 3 a lot for voice communications.

The problem at present is that users are complaining that my mic is extremely quiet... even when I have microphone boost turned on. My question is why is this happening? Do I require a pre-amp for such a microphone?

Running it through an ASUS DS, tried in 90 degree and 180 degree modes, users seem to prefer 90 degrees, also tried with windshield on/off.

Any help would be great,

Rob

Microphone is boosted, can't turn it up in TS3 but settings that should be on are on.

When doing monitoring, it seems it picks up me talking 30cm away but not audible through speakers, whereas lips to wind break gives full feedback. At distance I can see the EQ spiking up multiple freqs just not hear it back unless speakers are maxed.
