Is this feasible ? I need to power the mic so that I can test it. Do not have a phantom power supply. Help.
The V63M is a FET based microphone working off 48 volts , unlike a tube a mistake in the supplied voltage can fry the fet.
Its the "poor mans " NeuimanmU87 without the EQ and it shows sharp top end , scratchy in need of taming.
Using a bench supply ?-- I hope nobody plays with the controls on stage .
It does pick up everything though whether that is a good thing or not only you can make up your mind.
The V63 M is a FET based condenser mike unlike a tube version so the 48 volt supply must be carefully controlled as current drain is less than 3ma,
Its got its treble problems although based on the Neumman U87 its not as the EQ circuit is missing--some work required although its very sensitive --maybe too sensitive at the higher end .
I am trying to image a group/band with a bench power supply feeding a microphone, its feasible though but the kit doesn't supply basic parts to keep the price low.

no what i'm asking is a quick schematic to show how to hook up to power supply safely.
this is to test it on the bench for repair.
