Hi Yannik,

How about a classic "wien-brücke" oscillator for the 500/51x racks?
A lot of people always have some trouble with doing measurings when using their daws,most likely because wether they don't get what all the dB conversion and scales  stuff means or they don't know the refernce level of their i/o interfaces.
Maybe a simple meter too.....just thoughts,

best,

Udo ;)
 
A good active monitor controller with perhaps 3-4 speaker selection, sub out, mono fold down?  A simplified avocet or similar would be cool.  I'm not aware of any MC kits currently. 

Could look at a Neve summing amp?

A 33609 or 2254 kit would also be pretty mint

 
Hmm... very interesting proposal :)
33609 compressor is very hard to build.
But maybe it's an great idea for the DIY Pro!
Best,
 
I'm aware that DRIP have PCB's for the following but a STA LEVEL and or BA6A kit would be pretty cool as well.

Your PSU works with the original Neumann U47?

Hi,
Yes, the circuit is a faithful reproduction of Neumann PSU.
But the resistor values are chosen for the Coto relay.
All depends on your relay inside mic.

Thanks for answring.
Can you be more explicit, please. I don't ask about resistors and relay for the moment.

The U47 works with 105v.
What is the voltage of your PSU?
Is your PSU compatible with the original Neumann U47 without making any modification?

 
great looking mics

are the u47 capsules and the c12 capsules you sell,  are they chinese made under specs?... or are they made in europe?
