Hi, any ideas would be appreciated.
I've been trying to repair my old (maybe 97' model) CAD live microphone it's a hand held condenser. It looks similar to a C195 but I guess mine is an older model it's black also but has a gold ring around the middle.
I gave it to a repair guy and he said I shouldn't worry about it as it would be too costly etc..easy for him to say but I don't have spare $300. He left a screw out when he gave it back and a lot of the internal wires pulled out of the curcuit board so I've basically soldered it back together with my limited instinctual knowledge as I couldn't find an online diagram. Not sure if it's actually stuffed or I've just wired it up incorrectly. When I plug it into my XLR cable and into the mixing desk I hear a loud hum when I touch the actual silver mic section, when I take my hand away it stops, but it's not actually working. Check out the photo's at these links.
