AKG C3000B Mod
« on: July 11, 2012, 05:57:17 AM »
Hi,

We have a pair of these mics.  Would love to mod one -- Anything that can be done to warm it up?  There was another thread about this... and someone had posted an article with a mod that had been deleted due to copywrite issues back in 2007?  Anyhow, would love to know any suggestions about these !

Thanks !

Hi,
if you are looking for Dorsey AKG C3000 mod article, I can send it to the Library (if that's ok with moderators).

First what don't you like about the microphone?  What does warm it up mean?  Have you used an EQ when recording with the microphone?

What type of preamp are you using transformer or transformerless input?

You need to think about the complete system, here is a link about another transformerlesss microphone
http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=52197.msg666368#msg666368

I suggest you don't blindly change a microphone circuit, unless you are doing it to learn.  Also you could loose resale value with adjustment(s) to a circuit.  I would make sure I could place the original  parts back in the microphone.

IIRC the article was posted in the past and then it was removed. 

Question the responses you get on the web as well as what you find on the web.
