Jim,

The cable you need is a 5 pin XLR to 3.5mm mini jack. You might find one
with an internet search, but if you have to make one or have one made, I
would start with a 3.5mm to 3.5mm screened stereo cable. It must be
screened. One end is cut off and soldered to a 5 pin XLR. One side of each=

balanced output is grounded to make it unbalanced. If you buy a long 3.5mm=

lead you can make a spare cable.

One side of each balanced mic output has to be grounded to make an
unbalances line. The mic has to be powered from an internal battery.
