Hello all,
I have a couple Countryman B6 microphones that use 5v power (coming from a wireless system) that I would also like to be able to use with my studio mixer. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions on the best way to convert 48v phantom power to the 5 volts that the mic needs.
My thoughts were: taking only one leg of the phantom power to get 24v and then from their either a voltage divider or a voltage regulator of some sort.
But is there a "standard" solution for this issue? I (truly) did some searching but only found people trying to go the other way, i.e. converting up to 48v from lower voltages.
Thanks in advance.
Andrew
