Tube Mic power for field recording/taping

(1/1)

BonoBeats:
Aside from the Telefunken M260 Field Kit, are there any tube mic boxes that can be powered in the field? Or does anyone on TS build them?

larrysellers:
You want this guy ---> http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=143235.0, although I believe the Telefunken boxes were his design. Also, I'm not sure he builds custom boxes anymore.

H₂O built the DC portable battery supply for my Neumann/Gefell m582 tube mics.  I am very pleased with the results of his work!

come to the darkside! i wish my PS had both channels in one box, but it isnt too bad.

unless your an idiot like me and want to run actives with the tubes. I ended up spending what is probably too much cash on stuff i didnt have room for in my bag to begin with. but i like the setup

tubems:
yah he can make a box for just about any tube mic, and obscure mic that needs different power.  Not tube mics, but he made me a small rechargeable ps for a pair of schoeps cmc3pd's that I have that take a -12v ground positive phantom. 

my dream is for one for my u67's which he has been thinking about a design for for some time, they are a tricky mic to power, BUT, if anyone is going to figure it out he will, so email him and see what he can do for you!!!
