Ambient Eumel Microphone Power Supply

The Ambient Eumel, a microphone power supply, lets an electret lavalier wired for a wireless transmitter plug straight into a mic input with 48 V phantom power.

The name Eumel, pronounced “Oymal,” is German for widget. The Eumel reduces the phantom voltage to the 5.6 V an electret capsule needs and sends the signal out actively balanced, at low impedance, on a standard XLR3M.

Each model has an input socket that matches the plug of a popular wireless system, in a 2-wire or 3-wire configuration, so the same lav can move between the transmitter and a cabled input. The EMPXLR solder version takes a lav wired to it by hand instead.
