FIXED: Nak Active Mod Uneven Levels?
« on: October 11, 2005, 05:30:37 PM »
I fixed this problem.  I forgot to turn off the attenuator under one of the caps.  I am such a dumbass, sorry to BM2 for posting!
--------------------------

Just got my active mod Cm300's back from busman2 today.  they look great!  +t to you chris.

However i am noticing already that one of the mics has a much lower output than the other.  Not necessarily lower in volume, but in clarity, response, and just fullness of the sound.  I tried switching channels, phantom power adapters, headphones, everything I can think of so far.

I wish I had another preamp to see if it's my UA-5 or my mics.

Any help?

EDIT:  I even switched the caps.  I basically have decided that it is the mics.  This is so frustrating.

  Why didn't you just PM me about this? I would be happy to fix any problem that I can. Check everything with a voltage meter to see where the offending wire or connection is.

I am sorry for going public with this, but I really don't think it's busman's fault.  Just for the record I am not doubting his work, because I was noticing this pre-mod.  I was just hoping that the mod would fix it, and I guess it's a bigger problem.

Ya know. I've been noticing that I get higher levels on one of my active mod naks as well, but it's not a huge difference. Never thought of checking the pad. Thanks for sharing!
