View post (Why do mic cords make noise?)
View thread
The mic cords make noise when you touch them probably because they are poorly insulated and when you touch them a small (unnoticable) amount of current leaks throught the insulation and into your body... interupting the signal of the mic. If it's a huge problem I would recommend getting some high dollar mic cables. If it's not that big of a deal and you were just curious... I wouldn't worry about it. Just avoid touching them.
