The MicroTrack 10dB Pad is a specially designed attenuator for the 1/8
microphone input on the MicroTrack 24/96or any device with similar
output impedance and phantom power characteristics.
It reduces the
output of a connected electret condenser microphone by approximately
10dB, which protects the input stage of the MicroTrack 24/96 from
becoming overloaded and distorting when recording high-SPL sources. The
in-line pad attenuates the audio signal from the mic while passing
unaltered the 5V supply needed to power the internal preamp of electret
condenser microphones.
In a live recording situation this little device is going to keep your recording from being distorted and hitting "the red". If you record amplified music or other loud sounds this is a must have for your MicroTrack. This works with the first version of the MicroTrack as well as the new version II that starts shipping in November.
