An old or damaged microphone cable can add some pretty nasty crunchy sounds to your audio. It can also make the signal cut in and out, too.
A client of mine recently had a guest who had a bad mic cable and every time they moved their microphone or cable, there was MAJOR crunchy/scratchy noise in their signal. Luckily when the guest didn’t touch anything the signal was OK, and this is a common workaround which will usually allow you to record the session at hand without any problems.
But of course faulty cables should be replaced asap.

I also had a noisy cable once, but when I went to replace it I realized it was only loose at the male end. I simply snugged up the threaded portion, and all was fine!
