thank you for the advice, you must be right, but: now I do have the linked preamp already, in a few days I will go travelling for quite a while, my video/audio...
is my mic wired differently then? at the 'normal' setting only the capsule positioned in front is used, just as you say Umashankar. At the tele positon however...
... If you used two capsules right next to each other and the capsule output is summed together, I'd expect better signal to noise ratio, because the sound (at...
By the way, that microphone looks similar to the Audio Technica ATR55 (MSRP: US$99.95). The ATR55 is directional, and also quite noisy. The two capsules are...
wow, it really does! The switch, the electronics, the battery compartments, the whole body looks as if from the same maker, only the caps don't. ... ...
i dont think much theory goes into the making of these mikes. the circuit complexity, i think, serves to 'sell' it internally within whoever is manufacturing...
I must - want - to try out the Schoeps schematics. ( And better caps..I guess once cought on building microphones I'll become obsessive ) ) Would the Schoeps...
VERY interesting. In the end - since I do not know how to contruct a circuit taking advantage of two capsules, and since there is not enough space for two at...
Jecek The acoustical equivalent noise floor is primarily the result of two factors: 1. The very low sensitivity of the microphone 2. The other factor the very...
one very simple thing you can do is to snip off the front capsule (with a large shears) everything including the wires. you no longer have a close up mike, but...
linkwitz mod is easy to do with these capsules. from there you just connect the two transistor circuit of schoeps and two 2k2 resistors (one to ground, from...
There is a very informative booklet available for download from Neumann, which describes microphone theory and design principles. "Microphones for Studio and...
Since you guys, specially you Umashankar have been that friendly answering my newbee questions, so here quite some more: Do I have to reverse polarity of the...
okay, if you are going unbalanced, the simplest circuit is with a small 9 volt battery (3 volts will do). linkwitz mod the mic. connect positive of battery to...

thank you very much!! The explanations on page 56-59 are fabulous, I'll study the booklet more thoroughly once I have chance. So far I only could review it...
Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone on here can recommend a specific transformer...a la Jensen...that I can use in building a direct box? Thanks...Joey D! ...
I was having a discussion with someone on how would one build a 100pico-V/rtHz amplifier, but came up empty on actual applications. A transformerless interface...

Thanks Klaus! Yes...I'm looking to build a passive direct box in a project box or something using only one transformer...one 1/4" unbalanced in one XLR...
Hi all, space is getting narrow in my preamp. I am wondering if there is any connector that is smaller but as reliable as the audio-standard xlr/cannon...

Hello Klaus, Yes, Lemo connectors are nice but expensive. You can also look for Fischer connectors. Neutrik have some multipin connectors, MiniCon, NanoCon and...
Hello Roger, Thanks for the suggestions. I haven't seen the Fischer parts yet. Thought they are decent priced untill I recognized that it was the price for a...
Hello Klaus, LEMO, Fischer and Hirose HR10 are all expensive. No wonder, about the first ones while being Swiss made. Binder Serie 712 or Serie 768 slightly...
