Are you recording your voice? Did you plug it into a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port? Are you using Jack or anything else? Also in general, how finnicky is the red USB cable that connects your Scarlett to your machine? Does it cause a ton of distortion / pops if you move it the slightest? I wasn't moving mine during recording of course but it just feels like the whole thing is going to come disconnected, like it's hanging by a thread in terms of audio signal.

Voice only, yes (Highly amateur podcasting & tutorials) 3.0 USB port. No additional software other than audacity. No problems with the USB cable so far. It's a fairly standard cable though, so getting a new one with better shielding shouldn't be too hard if that's a concern.

  If you touch that cable, you don't hear any distortion coming through the channel? If you have headphones on you'd hear it.

    I don't. Powered monitors, headphones, neither has a problem (even with the 48v mic power supply enabled).
