MK-U47 - build thread

[Forcemusicgroup]

Would any one happen to have the BOM to this mic. I I ownits years ago. I reached out to @ioaudio his hard drive crashed and doesn't have the info anymore. HELP.

I have got the infos on an old hard drive... I am abroad but will search for it as soon as I am back home. In the meantime you can check the original schematic of the U47, the MK-U47 is not that far away. He used a reed relay for pattern switching if I remember correctly.

I don't exactly have the BOM, but I do have all of the build docs for this mic (attached as a zip file).

I have exactly the same - Jimi was faster.
Unbelievable - this was already 10 years ago...

Do you also done some audio tracking test, or comparison with the original ?

 

[Forcemusicgroup]

I Apologize,

ioaudio MK47 kit is the microphone BOM I am looking for. I bought a kit off the blackmarket, didn't come with a BOM, The creator has claimed the information was lost due to a hard drive failure. Any help would be appreciated @ioaudio​

This one?

 

[Forcemusicgroup]

YES!!!!!! Just need the types of resistors etc to complete this build.

I owe you a coffee

 

[chefducuisine]

You're welcome. That's what this forum is about
Enjoy the build process and let us know the outcome.

Hi, I'm in a similar situation as Forcemusicgroup. Started a MK47 build a long time back and abandoned due to the usual "life getting in the way" stuff. Does anyone have a BOM for the PSU? I was considering the Zayance board if it's still available.

See reply #763 above for the build docs if you don't have them. I built my PSU directly from the original schematic as I recall, but the Zayance PCB will work too, as will Dany's PCB for the 408a build here.

Jim50hertz. Lets build together

Can I join ?? I have the parts (capsule,body,mic electronics), just no PSU... And have a recording session in April... Fingers crossed I can hit that target....

 

[Forcemusicgroup]

Ive got the entire mic built, exception is the capsule. There was a post that I should replace the 5w resistor, I have both not sure which to use. the newer one has thermal fins and its pretty, so im not sure...

I'm happy to help if I can, however I've built the mic already many years ago, and, looking at the docs, it was the first version of the board set.

There's a 30watt Caddock resistor in that value that stays pretty cool.

I wouldn't mind double checking my work against yours if you have one available to take pics
