Sony ECM 957

["Chris Owens" <>]

Hi,

I recently read on the DV Info board that someone believes that the Sony
ECM 957 5-pin XLR can be prought out to balance stereo pair. The logic
being that the mic has a 5-pin XLR, which does have just enough pins to
make this possible.

Can anyone confirm this, or is it (as I suspect) wishfull thinking. Does
anyone have the pin functions for this mic?

The 957 comes with a 5-pin XLR to 3.5 Stereo jack. One has to wonder why
Sony took this route rather than hardwire the connector as they have on
the 907.

As an aside, I have found this mic much better than the cheaper 907,
with good clear sound.

Regards,

Chris Owens.
