I have a studio projects b1 connected straight into a tascam dp03sd portastudio in this order Mic>xlr cable with 1/4 headphone jack on the end> 1/4 to guitar jack adaper> guitar jack> xlr adapter. In getting phantom power but its too low and then when i turned up the built in pre it added alot of gain. Is the cable to blame and i need an male xlr to female xlr cable? Or is it the mic? The cheapo dynamic worked better than this is working now
