Blackmagic pocket 6 - ta3 microphone cable

Hi everyone ,

 

I need to built few cables for BlackMagic Pocket 6k Camera to feed audio from Sennheiser RX to Camera (it has TA3-M connector and can also provide +48V)


Mini jack TRS ——> TA3-M

 

I feel that normal wiring 1-1, 2-2, 3-3 would not work. That I would need to solder it as most Sennheiser RX where XLR end has negative  and ground connected. Positive (2) connected to the TRS tip .

 

whats your thoughts ?

The Sennheiser EK100 portable receiver has an unbalanced output, so assuming the camera's audio input uses the conventional balanced wiring scheme; the common (pin 3) and ground/shield (pin 1) on the TA3 should be tied together. On the Rx 3.5mm TRS output connector, the Ring terminal is floated (not connected), whilst the Tip is hot.

Unlike a full size XLR, the bottom terminal on a TA3 is pin 2. Pins 1 & 3 are parallel.  Pin 1 is ground of course.
