Ok have had time to pick up the old microphone and run some tests this afternoon.
I wired everything up and just sitting in front of my computer these are the results I got.
Mic A is the mic which I have just had rewired.
Mic B is the mic I thought I was having problems with and had rewired about a year ago.
So after putting everything together the results were as follows:
Recording level 6 on the Sony
Gain on the CA 9200 40+
Volume aprox half past the hour
Mic A was brought up to -12db
Mic B remained constant at -24db
So the new questions I now have are:
Could this be a calibration problem and if so how do you get them calibrated? OR
Can the Sony levels be "balanced" independently or is it back to Plan B a new set of mics?
Opinions please
Cheers Schoff
