Does anyone have a simple circuit to strip phantom power from an input. I have a mic level input on a camcorder that has non-switchable phantom power. Presumably some sort of DC blocking Caps arrangement would be required?
Many thanks

What type microphone and input connector is used?
(stereo input thru 3.5 jack or mono-balanced thru XLRF)
(stereo input thru 3.5 jack or mono-balanced thru XLRF)
If it was a normal XLR type mic connector you could disconnect the 6.8k resistors that usually connect to pins 2 and 3 but as for camcorder mic power I have no idea.
It's an XLR 3 pin female that delivers 48V in the normal way ( Distributed on pins 2+3 through 2 x 6K8 resistors so pins 1-2 read 48V as do 1-3). I need to plug a line signal, padded down 60 dB to mic level, into this input without getting power back to the line output. I figure Caps inline with each power leg would do the trick but I don't know values required.
