hi hi,
ive got old good mic from 1976... its oktava tube condenser, right?
View attachment 97198View attachment 97197View attachment 97196View attachment 97195View attachment 97194
u see the connections at the bottom.. how can i use this kind of beast? where to start? can connect it to my art tube preamp or external audio card?
---------------------------------
i found this, maybe it has truth in it:
The MK-12 was the original Oktava SDC head from the early 70's that was based on the Neumann SMR-64, which is the same head as the MK-64, and the predecessor to the wildly successful MK-012 many years later. This mic has a similar sound, quality and design to the legendary Neumann KM-84.
This microphone uses the 6S6B sub-miniature tube, which is the Russian analog of the famous AC701k tube. A sub miniature, low noise tube designed specifically for microphone use.
The capsule is an MK-12, a faithful copy of the Neumann analog found on their KM series of microphones.
The body is a ZT4M body made by Zvuko Technika a Leningrad company that made electret condenser for LOMO. AEG choose this body because the size and rear headbasket space is the same as the famous Neumann mics. The result is an excellent tube mic that can sit beside Telefunken, Schoeps and Neumann contemporaries.
This microphone's power supply is 220v OR 120v
This microphone uses the 6S6B sub-miniature tube, which is the Russian analog of the famous AC701k tube. A sub miniature, low noise tube designed specifically for microphone use.
---------------------------
so some of those pins are for feeding the power to the mic, and others are for outputing audio signal.. maybe these two traffics must be separated here..right? its a hard road... but.
so theres no chance to use it with a xlr phantom power? is it possible to convert all those pins to standard xlr?? i guess it has sorta sub-miniature tube inside..hmm??
thanks, god blessss!
