Hi guys,
I've just ordered an Alctron HST-11A (Apex 460) and I'm still trying to decide which way I'm going to go upgrade wise. Has anyone here actually used one of Tim Campbell's C12 capsules with an Apex 460? I did some searching and couldn't find opinions of people who had actually done it. I've already got a CM-2480 transformer and was thinking of simply following this guide.

Would this guide work well with Tim's capsule? My goal is to get the mic as close to the C12 as possible. I'm pretty confident with a soldering iron and have successfully built myself a GSSL comp but I'm still learning when it comes to going from schematic to PCB. Can anyone tell me if this guide will achieve my goal as far as emulating the C12 circuit goes?
Thanks,
Kris
