The GM4 is an unbalanced mic; however, just plug it into the rear Bal In jack. No other modifications are required.

Julius, W2IHY, made up a cable for me to connect my Heil GM-4 boom mike to the SDR-1000. It included a 1/4 inch plug that plugs directly into the Presonus Firebox or the FA-66. Are those connections considered balanced or unbalanced? Is the GM-4 a balanced mike? The ideal would be to plug the 1/4 inch plug into the rear of the 5000A. I just did a ring out of the W2IHY cable with an ohm meter and discovered that the ring connection on the plug is not connected. I guess that means I need to wire the cable up to the front panel mike connector. If the GM-4 is a balanced mike, which I am unsure, then it might be possible to rewire the 1/4 inch plug to accommodate a balanced connection. Does anyone have experience with the GM-4? 73, Steve N6VL -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
