That clears up a lot of questions George. Audio can be complicated but this specific video is surely helpful in clearing up the complication. I always have a variety of plugs and wire on hand in case I have to make up a patch or insert cable to get a specific audio issue resolved.
I think the aim for me is to clear up the configuration end of things in a concise manner. Hope you're keeping well Andy. Always appreciate the comments from you mate.
Late to the party…great video George! I have a dramatic distortion connecting a DBX 286s unit to my new Yaesu FT-710…I think a DI box is what I need…going directly from my Heil PR781 to the FT-710, no problems (pin 1-3 tied up at the mic to TS)! Thanks for sharing..Cheers
Good stuff George, I've got a small mixer , a procaster mic and want to feed that to a Ts 870, but have been unsure how to do it so I'm watching very carefully. Telling me/us in basic terms is the way go , thanks again, regards Carl, G0lka.
Thanks for the video. Just to clarify, TRS out from pre-amp, all pins connected. At TS end into DiBox , tip connected, Ring wire from TRS goes to sleeve, ground/braid not connected? Having a nightmare getting Audio from Mic > Scarlett Solo > Dibox > Rear ACC2 of TS-890
If you are having difficulty with the Rane link that George posted, here is the one that I found: www.ranecommercial.com/kb_article.php?article=2107 the pdf download link is not working. In this document they recommend having shields grounded on both ends of a cable, but if there is more than one possible ground path between devices (Ground loop?), should I follow George's recommendation at 11:03 to only ground at one end?
Hi George thanks for the explanation I’m going to use a DI-E di box and just wondering that on the Icom radio their is 8 vdc on the mic hot pin is that going to be a problem or do you need to put a capacitor inline to the di box output ? ..
Wow, I've watched dozens of videos to find out if I should take special care to connect a studio microphone to my Icom IC-7700 and the only place I could find a practical and theoretical description was here. But a curious question, wouldn't it be better with a Passive DI box (Behringer DI20) instead of an Active one like your DI100 is? The DI20 has an output of 600 Ohms which to me seems more right? One other thing, shouldn't a 1 uF tantalum capacitor be fitted between the mic jack's mic input and to the DI box, Icom has a voltage of phantom 8Volt on the mic input, which will be shorted when trying to connect a dynamic microphone. I know that all Heil microphones for Icom have this capacitor installed. 73 Per HB9GIM (now a subscriber)
Hi there, in this video I was being specific about using a condenser microphone. Although nowadays I run a Shure SM7B dynamic, its isolated from everything via the DI box. The whole point of running it from the 9volt supply is to activate the pad circuit really. Its only task is to pad and isolate. Cheers for the sub. For sure you need a DC blocking cap if you're going straight from the mic into the radio's front socket, but not necessary with the ACC port as that 'phantom' supply is not there. When running outboard gear there is not a lot between the mic and the rig...73
@@GeorgeEI7KO thanks George You have providede me The answers I have ben looking for, for over a Monty. Just ornerede The Behringer DI100 and The Behringer QX1202USB and with this I Can ude all kind of microphones :-) 73 and thanks for your superb videos and explanations On this tonic
Phantom power is provided by the pre amp to the mic, usually 48v, the pre-amp which George is using as an example as a switchable phantom power facility, so you can use a Dynamic mic or Condenser type mic.
