There was a decent one going around designed by Ted Fletcher (of Alice Mixers) years, decades(?) ago. I prefer two op amp balanced inputs though.dogears said:Maybe a better question. Is there a “typical” balanced input buffer that can be trimmed a few dB?
Note that there are two distinct levels of performance with a balanced input like this. One level is simple debalancing which cancels ground noise. The second level is a good Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) which cancels common mode noise like interference picked up over a long cable. Getting good CMRR is much harder. AFAIK it's basically not possible with a simple single op amp circuit like you're using. And you definitely would not be able to trim it because doing so would throw off the impedance balance. You would need a two op amp circuit of which there are many. But if you're using short cable runs and don't need good CMRR, then the circuits posted would would fine and you can trim by just trimming part of the feedback resistor.dogears said:I think the goal in the original is to be able to trim the circuit a few dB up or down to match two channels.
