MODEL A96F LINE MATCHING TRANSFORMER

This transformer connects microphones with an XLR-type connector

to the 3.5 mm (1/8 in.) inputs found on camcorders and other recording

devices. It increases the signal level from the microphone, provides a

balanced input, and prevents distortion due to the d.c. bias typically

found in camcorder microphone inputs.

IMPEDANCE SELECTION

The A96F can be modified for microphones rated at 150 W. This

modification is only necessary if the output level from the A96F is

insufficient for your recording device. Use the following steps:

1. Access the wiring in the XLR plug element of the A96F by loosen-

ing the screw and sliding the plug from the case.

2. Unsolder the RED lead from pin 2. Insulate the bare wire at the end

of the lead with the insulator from the YELLOW lead.

3. Solder the YELLOW lead to pin 2.

4. Rotate the plug element three turns to twist the leads and replace

the element in the housing. Replace the screw.
