Hey Kemperites!
I've just literally stumbled on an old Sennheiser MD 421N that they were about to throw out at the institute where I work.
They just had it lying there in the hallway and would've put it in the garbage if I hadn't asked...
I have no idea whether it still works, but it seems to be in pretty good contidion. Its one of the old white types and I'd definitely like to give it a try for some recording and, of course", profiling!
Anyway, I noticed that the connection cable is like a smaller xlr and from what I've been reading online this would be a "klein tuchel", right?
How can I connect this to my xlr input at my interface? I've seen a couple of adapter cables on ebay here in Germany but I'm not sure if I can just hook it up that way, since the Sennheiser has, to my understanding at least a different cable configuration for hot, cold and ground.
Anybody around here with any experience in the matter? I'm hoping it makes sense to spend money on trying to get the mike to work, since they have a very good reputation.
Cheers!
David
