For some reason I didn't get the digest with Chris' message in it, but I
got the following digest with Jim Coon's response to it. So I've
searched it out in the archive's.

I appreciated Jim's advice wrt his plans for his microphone, but I've
looked at those plans a few times and they are beyond my level of
competency I'm afraid.

What I'd really like is something that can be used for vocals as well
pull double duty on occasion to record instruments.
I understand that I could easily spend several hundred dollars on such a
mike, but how much could a guy get away with on the lower end?

I haven't seen a cable of that type in anybody's catalog, perhaps I
don't know where to look. Does anyone have any suggestions. I didn't see
anything on the Sound Professionals site. (or any other that I've looked
at for that matter.)

The best I've been able to come up with so far is XLR to 1/4" to 1/8"
with at least one gender bender in there.

Thanks for the advice.
