So i have rigged up a little experiment here. for now this is just one channel.
9v batt box that provides 9v to pin3 of my mic, sig pin2, grnd pin1.
in the box i have 10u NP caps on pins 2&3 on the output side(going to the recorder), to block p48 and stop 9v from hitting recorder input.
so If i just tie pin3 to grnd on the recorder side, and p48 is on, it will fry correct??
so, should I just leave pin3 on the batt box output unconnected(for xlr)? will this mess up the CMR of the balanced input, and create noise? I know the proper way is to use a transformer on the outputs of the batt box, but i'm trying to do this on the cheap.
As it is now, it works as xlr output(recorder side) with grnd pin1, pins 2 & 3 each connected to it's own 10u cap(signal is only on pin2 though).
