    Is anybody else getting feedback issues using this mic? I was surprised when I first plugged it in that anytime my phone was nearby it would feedback like an amplifier. Never had any mic do that. Also you can’t use it on a phone without their proprietary cable, standard usb-c to lightning does not work. Anybody ever find that without the -20db pad enabled the mic picks up a TON of background noise? More so than even my phantom powered condenser mic nt1a. It’s almost unusable without the pad. Did I get a bad one?
