I snagged a pair of DPA 4061's on ebay last week. They should be here in a few days. I scanned the archives pretty heavily for info on adapting these mics but didn't come up with much specific info.
I'd like to test the mics before I cut the LEMO connectors off. Any advice? I'm wondering if I can grab the pins with female pin connectors (like from an RS-232) and rig something temporary up to plug into a sound pro batbox.
From what I gather, the sound pro bbox is a good solution. I'm leaning towards getting a new one with the bass rolloff and level adjustment (which is what I currently use with SP-CMC-8's). Any strong feelings on not getting those two options or going a different bbox route?
I am Not a miniplug fan. Any suggestions for alternatives would be appreciated. Things I have considered:
Single 5 pin mini-XLR
Miniplug on short pigtail (could be taped in place).
Using LEMO sockets
Thanks!
