I have a sennheiser MKH 110 microphone. According to some webpages i saw it's a measurement microphone capable of picking up sounds to 1 Hz
Unfortunately it uses an unusual configuration to get it's power. I found this schematic. http://frogrecordist.home.mindspring.com/images/Wiring-110.jpg
But it doesn't make much sense to me.
What i've got so far is that the mic has an unbalaced output. Pin 1 is signal, pin 2 is ground, pin 3 is +8V.
What i don't understand is what the 5V supply is on the schematics and what the 3V on pin 1 is for.
