I'm going to be producing an interview show for the internet using a > telephone hybrid to record the program into my computer for later broadcast. > A friend of mine has a broadcast host digital hybrid > http://www.jkaudio.com/broadcast-host_dtails.htm which I'm borrowing to try > out. I've got an audiotechnica at 804 omni dynamic microphone plugged into > the xlr send of the host, and a stereo patch cord going from the stereo mini > jack line-level output on the host containing the send and receive audio to > the line input of my sound card. > I've got plenty of send audio. The problem is that the level of the incoming > caller audio coming out the output jack is low, and when I turn it up to get > a better level, I get cross-talk from the send audio leaking into the > receive audio. This surprised me, since the specs state that the > trans-hybrid loss is supposed to exceed 50 db. If I lower the caller level > while recording and then crank it up later in post-production, I still have > the same problem. The technician at J K audio said that to achieve better > separation I'd have to get something like the innkeeper 1, which costs about > $700. > I looked at the specs for J k audio's inline patch, and although it's an > analog hybrid and therefore shouldn't work as well as a digital hybrid, like > the host or the innkeeper, although the specs claim that it only has 20 db > of trans-hybrid separation as opposed to the host's 50 db of separation, the > specs seem to show that it has a hotter line-level output than the host, > and costs only $240.. Does anyone have any suggestions, other than plunking > down $700 for something like the innkeeper 1 which is beyond my budget? > Has anyone used the inline patch? >
