Hello all
I have been given a vintage UHER M815 long shotgun microphone and I
am trying to find its specifications before trying it with a modern
recorder. It is a yard-long aluminum cylinder with a switch with
three levels of attenuation: 0, -7, and -20 dBs, and it comes with a
cable finished by UHER's usual multi-pin microphone (male) plug. I
tried a web search with no success.
Does anyone know anything about it?
Particularly I would like to know if it requires external power?
Pre-amp? Phantom?
What is the connection diagram for the multi-pin UHER microphone plug
(and the conversion to XLR)?
Thanks for any feedback
Rafael
PS. I am trying to set up a new comparative test between the Oade
modified vs out-of- the- box Marantz PMD 660 following the kind and
helpful advice of the NR members that responded . Maybe next week I
will have it rigged up, the test I ran this week was not
satisfactory. It is too bad I do not have a Gianni Pavan at hand to
teach me how to perform wonderful equipment tests like his!
