Thanks GL mate, got it set to -10 as it is, but will have a play about with it til it sounds right. The other switch on the side of the mic says lin on it with a squiggly line below it, not sure if that’s the bass roll off filter, but no doubt you do…

yes, that is the one. lin would mean linear (no filter) and the squiggly line means the bass is filtered.

If you can reduce the input level on your recording that should also prevent clipping. What soundcard is at the other end between the mic and the computer?
