Hi Vicki,
            Sorry to hear the problem persists. Does the same mic exhibit t=
he problem when plugged into an external sound card with P48 / xlr mic inpu=
t?
- or similar mixer ?

Could it actually be down to the recorder? - I would imagine that Sennheise=
r test the mic before returning to the customer which would indicate the re=
corder has a problem unless their quality control just flew out the window.=
.

BR
-Mike.
