Is the mic in good physical condition?


Check there are no cuts in the lead or damage to the frame. Check the connector is not loose or damaged.

Is it a brand-new microphone you have just received?

Confirm that the connector has been wired to suit your specific model of transmitter. This should be written on your invoice. If not, contact the agent you purchased it from for confirmation.

Is there AF activity on the receiver when talking through the microphone?

If yes, make sure your volume levels on your mixer and amp are turned up. Make sure your receiver output cable (Balanced or AF Out) are connected correctly to your Mixer/Amp. If you can still not hear the mic, it is likely that something else in your sound system has failed.

Now that we have the basics out of the way, let’s look at some common issues and the solutions.

Common Issues With Mics Used In Fitness

If the mic is:

  • weak, quiet or 'tinny' sounding
  • no sound at all
  • stops working after warming up

The transmitter cuts in and out when jumping up and down and/or shaking the unit

There is an issue with the transmitter it will need to be returned for assessment – See below for return instructions.

The RF/AF Signal on the receiver drops in and out

Change your receiver and transmitter to a different channel to avoid any interference that may be causing the issue. Make sure the antennas are upright and in line of sight. Make sure you are using strong, quality batteries.

When turning on the mic, there is a feedback noise

Turn down the mic gain (MT or Mic Vol) on the body pack transmitter. Turn down the mic volume on the mixer. Turn down the treble or bass on the mixer mic channel. Make sure you are not positioned too close, under or next to the speakers, or they are not facing directly at you.
