Hey guys, i am not a techy especially when it comes to impedance. I have a tube preamp with transformer, rated and wired for 50 Ohms input ( assuming for 50 Ohms rated microphones) and I am feeding this with a condenser mic rated 150 Ohms electrical impedance, with normal loading impedance of 1000 Ohms.
When I try and record drums, i have signal pops and drop outs. Could this be because of the impedance mismatch ? ..or a faulty mic cable which I am about to check but would really like to know if this is OK to use this particular mic into a 50 Ohm rated tube pre as it sounds pretty awesome, less the drop out...
Please let me know your thoughts on this... many many thanks for your input!
