Or are you already at +4 balanced pro line level? You basically need an attenuator. A reamp box would get you almost there - they are basically a transformer with some resistors, but with an unbalanced output.
Attenuators seem to be expensive for what they do. Especially if you want control over the amount of attenuation. You can use multi-tap transformers and rotary switches. Possibly a passive resistor device would work, at the expense of noise.
If you have them already, a reamp box into a DI should work.
Why do want to do this? Can your mic preamp not accept line level? Boosting a signal, then attenuating, then boosting again is not usually a great idea. |
Hi and thanks for the reply,
My line output is +4 from my soundcard. I am interested in a transformaer-based DIY circuit. Do you know of any design?
Thanks a bunch,
