Hi does anyone here use a Zoom H1 Essentials recorder. It has an input marked mic/line but when I feed a line signal into it I get the sound plus a click afterwards. It doesn't happen if I feed a mic level signal. So it seems this is something to do with the different levels. Thoughts?

So I guess I need a pad/attenuator. Anyone know one that uses a 3.5mm jack that I can get in Europe?

Thanks.

I hadn't used my Zoom H1 mic for ages because the rubber coating got really sticky, but I just read online that you can clean it up with vegetable oil. I tried olive oil and it did the job. Now my little Don King mic (my nickname for it) is back in action.

Using a Zoom H1 with lavalier mic gives noise. I guess it is a 50hz something thing.

Without the lavalier mic and the built in microphone of the H1 no issue. The setup with lavalier on my desktop, no issue. The lavalier to the H1 and not connected to USB, no issue.

Anyone any idea on how to get rid of that noise?
