Q: 1. Can I connect a mixer's phone stereo out to the 3.5mm female and use XLR to TRS female adapter to convert headphones to mono?

A: Yes you can connect the headphone output of a mixer into the 1/8'' input on the Switchcraft AudioStix adapter.

Q: 2. will it work with takstar sgc-598?

A: That adapter will work for the Takstar SGC-598 microphone, to connect to an XLR input. Since that Takstar mic is battery powered, the less costly ROVXLR adapter would also work: https://bhpho.to/3AOKIE9

Q: 3. If I am wanting to connect a Sennheiser Lavalier 3.5mm directly to my Zoom F3, should I get the VXLR or VXLR+?

A: Since the Sennheiser lavalier mic requires a small amount of voltage, you can either use the RODE VXLR Pro Transformer-Balanced 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom-Power Converter or the RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter (B&H # ROVXLRP), which both have a built-in phantom power converter that allows you to use phantom power from an XLR mic input and converts it to the proper amount of plug-in power that the mic requires. The RODE VXLR 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter (B&H # ROVXLR) does not work in the same manner and will only converts the plug for the microphone from 3.5mm to XLR, but it will not convert phantom power to plug-in power.

Q: 4. Will this work to connect a Deity V.Lav mic to the XLR input on a Zoom H6?

A: Yes it wll.

Q: 5. Will the Lav mic came with the "Sennheiser G3" work with the "Rode VXLR PRO" when connecting to a mixer-recorder such as the MixPre ? Does it accept the screw lock from the "G3's lav" TRS connector? Thank you for the answers.

A: Yes, the Rode VXLR PRO adapter can be used with a Sennheiser lavalier microphone to enable connection to an XLR mic input on a mixer/recorder such as a Sound Devices MixPre model. The VXLR PRO has a threaded female 3.5mm TRS connector on one side to attach the mic and a male XLR connector on the other end allows the mic to be plugged into an XLR input. Additionally, the adapter converts 48V phantom power into plug-in power so you can safely provide power to the mic.

Q: 6. Can someone describe what is connected to each 1/8 in. connection (tip. ring, sleeve) in terms of signal, power, and ground? (This would help to answer a lot of other questions.)

A: The specific TRS input wiring schematic is not available for the Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter, however we can confirm that the VXLR+ is compatible with microphones using the 3.5mm "Sennheiser" wiring configuration for compatibility. This adapter is not compatible with microphones wired for compatibility with Sony input connections.

Q: 7. I bought this to use with Tascam DR-40 and Audio Technica AT8024. The input level is too low for recording even with maxed out preamp level. How do I use this combo? Is this adapter right for AT8024?

A: The Tascam DR-40 only accept mic level devices via its XLR inputs. This adapter is incorrect. To connect the AT8024 in mono to the recorder, you would require an XLR adapter such as the Kopul A-XMMF. To use the mic in stereo, you will need a stereo mini to dual XLR Y cable such as the Kopul SMYC-M2XM06 and then an additional 3.5mm stereo turnaround adapter to connect to the mic. See the Hosa Technology GMM303.

Q: 8. Does B&H sell a locking make 3.5trs to non-locking 3.5trs short cable, as this will be ideal for connecting this adapter to my preferred mic and maximizing connection integrity, at least on the adapter side. Thank you.

A: No. A locking 3.5mm male TRS to a "non-locking" 3.5mm female TRS would be as special order, made to order from a specialty shop, such as Whirlwind. B&H could order for you$$.....

Q: 9. Does this work with Sennheiser MKE2 mics?

A: Yes it will

Q: 10. Can I use a Sanken COS-11D with a Zoom FX3 using this adapter?

A: Yes, a Sanken COS-11D Lavalier Microphone that has a 3.5mm TRS connector can be used with the Zoom F3 Portable Field Recorder when connected with an adapter like the RODE VXLR Pro Transformer-Balanced 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom-Power Converter or the RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter (B&H # ROVXLRP). You will need to turn on phantom power on F3 to power the mic.
