Hey all,

Keen to solder up an XLR to 3.5mm cable, scratch track to an XD Cam via a Lectro R1a.

Can someone (eric?) please drop some knowledge on the correct pin configuration?

Thanks!!

 

XLR. Ground to pins 1 & 3, positive to pin 2. Easy way to ground pins 1 & 3 is to split the ground/shield into two separate leads, twist and tin them then connect one lead to pin 1 and the other to pin 3.

 

3.5 mm TS or TRS, ground to sleeve, positive to the tip. Make sure the cable is at least 6" long because that's the antenna.
