Sonifex CM-MS3 Single 3 Way Passive Microphone Splitter

The CM-MS3 stands as a passive "one-to-three" splitter, encased in a compact yet durable aluminum housing. Its purpose is to divide a single microphone or line source into up to three destinations, utilizing Neutrik XLR connectors for seamless connectivity.

Impressive Signal Range: Equipped with high-quality audio transformers, the CM-MS3 can accommodate input levels up to +18dBu, making it suitable for both microphone and line-level splitting applications.

Flexible Phantom Power Options: The CM-MS3 offers three phantom power supply methods for a connected microphone:

  1. External +48VDC power connector.
  2. Microphone amplifier linked to output 1 (direct).
  3. Microphone amplifier linked to output 2 (phantom loopback).

Control over phantom power provision is facilitated through simple push switches. Users can simultaneously power a microphone using any two of the aforementioned methods without compromising audio quality, ensuring power supply redundancy.

Effective Ground Loop Hum Elimination: Addressing ground loop hum issues is made effortless with push switches that lift pin 1 of the output connectors (output 2 and 3 only), swiftly eliminating ground loop hum problems.
