This is probably a pretty basic question...but I'd like some help on how to wire up +48v switches and a phase reverse switches for microphone preamps.
I have two old WBS preamps that I am racking up and they don't have either phantom or phase flip switches, so I need to add them seperately to the rack (one for each channel). The power supply I have has a +48v rail as well as the + and - rails. When I have racked preamps in the past I have used JLM Go-Between kits to supply phantom, phase and pad switches, and I may do it that way again, but I thought it might be a cheaper and quicker option to do it with off the shelf parts instead. So if anyone can explain to me in simple terms how to do this, that would be great. I'm not very good at following circuit diagrams, and I work best from simple layman's pictures and explanations..........so the more basic the explanation the better it would be for me. Thanks.
