If you want to use the Electro-Voice RE320 with a computer properly, it is a must to prepare an audio interface. The reason is that a dynamic microphone with XLR cables does not output digital audio.
In this case, a digital to analog converter will be of great assistance. This tool will help to change the analog signal from the microphone into a digital one.
Let's move on to the particular steps.
Firstly, you will plug this interface into your computer via USB, Thunderbolt, or Firewire. Meanwhile, make sure that the proper drivers have been installed.
Secondly, let's connect your microphone to one of the interface inputs via XLR. Then, engage phantom power in case the mic is active.
Thirdly, you can adjust the audio interface to the audio input of your computer. Then, set the microphone input as the track's input if you are using a digital audio workstation and arm the way for recording.
Lastly, you just need to choose the suitable level of the microphone preamp on the interface. It's done.
