Friends:
I often use a single microphone (in a parabola) with a minidisk recorder
that only records in stereo --- so one track is "wasted". Plus, the
recorder doesn't allow independent adjustment of the record levels for
the two tracks.
I'd like to split the signal from the microphone into two wires, put
something like 20dB attenuation on one of them, and then combine these
two back into two channels of a single stereo input for the MD recorder.
The goal is to provide myself with some protection from setting the
record level too high. The intended effect is roughly what I'd get if I
set the record levels differently for the two channels.
Can anyone suggest easy to find parts that'll let me do this? I imagine
it is something everybody's already doing and that I'm just slow with
getting to the idea. Or maybe its a bad idea for some reason?
So far, I have a connector that adapts the microphone and converts to a
stereo mini plug with the signal on one of the channels (the tip, I
believe) and I imagine there should be bits of wire and connectors
that'll get me where I need to be. How do I supply the attenuation? Can
I make it adjustable in a couple levels?
Thank you for any and all suggestions.
Steve P
