I finally got around to making this. It turned out well, but I was quite suprised about the volume drop. I think that you said about a 6db decrease, but I think it is a little more with this box.
Thanks for the help on this one. If I can put this one together, any of you can build it!
I'll be getting a digital camera soon, so I'll put up some pics soon.
Yeah, I never thought too much about the volume drop. This might be a problem for NJB3 or other users, who are trying to go line in.
If you've got a preamp though, this will sound great. I'm using this wiring into an Edirol UA5 and a Sony HiMD (mic in, low sens). Results are great.
Oh yeah, this is not recommended unless you're familiar with some basic electronics. Not much, but some knowledge is needed. Like making cables, it is simple, but it takes some practice to make nice connections, get the wiring right, etc. It is rewarding though
. Some sense of satisfaction, and better than paying $50 or more...
