Question.

A friend has a desk that he wants some pads on the mic amps.  If one adds an H pad before the mc amp, are there any issues ?

I'm thinking you probably want the pad 1200 ohms in & out, therefore the resistor values would be pretty low.  Is Johnson noise an issue ?

I'm guessing there probably wouldn't be a problem with using phantom power.

Anybody got any thoughts ?

This desk is a very small custom broadcast desk, I have no diagrams  or documentation.  The boards are very densly packed & double sided so difficult  to trace the circuit.



 
sigh


standard U pad is what you want. 

See Jensen app notes, etc etc etc
