I have a pre without level control and need a pad, but my searches are yielding very little. Does anyone know where to buy these? I'd prefer one with variable attenuation.
Thanks :)
Run the line out from your DI into your computer's soundcard. Your soundcard(even if it's stock) contains converters. You may need some adapters though,
as most stock soundcards have an 1/8 in. jack input.
You can adjust the soundcard to receive a line level signal in your control...
I suspect the 414 with its multiple patterns and rolloff/pad capabilities would be a better choice if you're looking for one mic to perform multiple tasks. It's one of those time tested studio standard type mics. I doubt you'll get as much mileage out of a baby bottle.
