A voltage divider

Or also pretty simple, a regulator

Before you do, have a read through some reviews on amazon.

I just got an old Sony C38 (which I've wanted forever and am so fucking stoked to use) and the stand adapter is really big (I think Euro is usually 3/8, US is 5/8, Id guess maybe this is 3/4 or bigger?)

Does anyone have an idea of what I need to be able to screw this onto a stand?

EDIT - Never mind, I think it uses one of the old RCA ribbon mic adapters, and got it sorted.

Apparently they're same as old RCA mics: https://www.aearibbonmics.com/products/ad1-adapter/ or http://xaudia.com/shop_item/rca-brass-s ... a-adapter/ in the UK

Hahahaha. Well, it's either that or an old DOD FX17 (which is clunky as hell, bandmate had one 20 years ago) because I'm NOT spending $150 on a CV pedal!

Those DOD treadles are sweet!

Fair enough, just as long as you're going into it with your eyes open.

i am a total noob so don't crucify me for this question. I understand it is stupid, but just can't find a comprehensible answer.

I have akg headphones that are really nice, you can hear all the details. however, when I listen to the track I made on the speakers, it sounds very thin and lacking in detail. how do I solve the problem???

Can you share the track?

Maybe some clarification needed, I can read this question two ways:

1. "I mixed my recordings with these nice headphones, but through speakers they sound thin"
2. "A track I mixed through speakers sound weak through the headphones"

I can say in advance that, especially as a noob, it's good to reference your recordings on several systems and try to get a mix that 'translates' reasonably well to all of them. A professional mastering job (which can be done affordably, and also a good learning experience) can help further narrow that gap.
