Jeez, I'm just not getting it...
So after the mod is done, do you end up with an active/ phantom pair and have the (2) old bodies left over?
So you really have two pairs of microphones?
There are three parts to a stock cm300.
1) A Capsule (cp1,2,3 or 4)
2) An Attenuator Barrel. The capsule is screwed into the top of the barrel, and the bottom of the barrel is screwed into the...
3) Body. All this really does is hold the required battery in place. No electronics besides for the on/off/lo cut switch.
The mod eliminates the need for the battery body. The cable on the actives exits out of the back of the attenuator housing. It is held tight using zip ties on either side to keep it secure.
So yes, I now have my actives, and I have the bodies left over. I use the bodies for the cp4 (shotgun) capsules, which is a whole different story.
Let me know if this makes no sense.
