Title: 5-pin XLR to stereo miniplug cable (for RODE NT4 mic)
Post by: Eldo Rado on November 15, 2013, 08:41:12 PM

My first post on Taperssection... good to be here.

Anyhow, the ten year old cable that came with my Rode NT4 finally shorted out at the stereo miniplug end.  I'm wondering if any of you can recommend a suitable cable replacement (I use it with my Sony PCM M10).  The Rode web site doesn't even list it as an accessory any more.

I found this one on B&H that looks like it might work, but that's just a guess (and it's way too short at only 12" in length): http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/313874-REG/Beyerdynamic_470643_MVK72_K3_Cable.html

Have any of you replaced the original 5 pin XLR to stereo miniplug cable and had a good result? Can you recommend?

Many thanks.

BH has 5-pin extension cables....in addition to your 1.5' 5-pin to Mini Stereo should work.

I can build you a custom short or long 5pin > TRS mini cable, LMK.

The Sony ECM-MS957 comes with one of these FYI.
