How Should We Connect the Desktop XLR Plug?

2022 03/23

In the plug, for a dynamic microphone or a condenser microphone with an external power supply, the desktop XLR plug to the big three-pin, and the Canon to the big two-pin can be used, but there are differences; for the condenser microphone without power supply, it can only be used Big three cores. The maya quartet sound card uses an interlocking three-pin stereo jack to ensure a good connection of the analog line; 2 unbalanced microphone inputs (INPUT 1/2), built-in ultra-low noise quality microphone preamp, with 48V phantom power supply and Low frequency overload cut function. The microphones are all balanced outputs, the key is to see whether the microphone input of the sound card is balanced or unbalanced.

If it is balanced, then use the balance head (canon or big three cores, small three cores); if it is unbalanced, you can use the big two cores or the small two cores (of course, you can also use the big three cores, but the effect is completely equivalent to the big three cores) two cores). However, even if this card has unbalanced input, each jack is a dual channel, so you should not use the second core, but the third core, otherwise it will short-circuit the other channel. Due to the built-in 48V phantom power supply of this sound card, if you use the phantom power supply of this card, you must have a big three core. And if the phantom power is connected externally, it is the same as the dynamic microphone connection. Of course, the desktop XLR plug can be left empty for one microphone input. In this case, if it is a dynamic microphone, it can also be used with a large second core. At this time, the microphone input should be set to mono in the software interface.
