I know there are many threads about this Mic but I had to ask some question

My prority is to use this mic with guitar recording and vocal(I know its not the best option but I'm broke so I don't mind it)

I want to start with this
https://www.directap.com/Microphones

But what about the pre amp?
Its the last thing that I cant figure out

Can I use more than a 9V on source?

Lot of pre amps use more than 9V, will it broke mic?
What amp should I build for myself and be satisfied

I don't want to use external power sourcers
I prefer to stay with batteries
And I would love to keep everything modular

Hope you guys can help me :)
 
As I said that's a nice schematic
But I only have some cheap audio card
What else should I get except audacity
I see that on schematic this mic requires 32V on xlr connector

Sorry for newbie questions but what should I get to work with this mic

I can't make xlr to jack adapter to work with or can I?
 
If you have no tools the cost of a soldering iron good enough to solder those mic capsules, something to hold them in while you solder them and all the other things like multimeter etc will cost you more than a cheap usb condenser mic.

I think if I was in your position That is the way I would want to go.

I know basics of electronics and I have tools like soldering iron and I know how to use them

The only problem is that I'm total newbie in audio recording
And I repeat I'm to cheap to buy ready to use mic

This one seems to be ok
Can you guys send more projects that will work fine for me?
