Now I've had to buy my own mic, I use a MUCH cheaper Behringer

The price is right...

The response is good, but being an electret it is rather noisy.
Easily good enough for LS measurements though.

Ok, so given that, the next question is:

How do I fudge a 'phantom powered' XLR mic into the mic in on my PC ?



Have a look in the SSM2019 app note on the Analog Devices web site. I
use the same pre-amp (but using the older SSM2017 part) with my Mic. I
battery power the pre-amp from two Yuasa 12V batteries.

The output of the pre-amp goes straight into my soundcard (For use with
True-RTA) or into my HP FFT analyser.
