Universal Velocity Microphone AV - XLR?

[timbertrout]

I have an old Universal Velocity Microphone nearly identical to the one below.

Unlike the one in the photo, mine has what I believe to be the original cable, hardwired, with a very large 4-pin male connector.

My question is: are there adapters available to connect the 4-pin to an xlr connector, so that I can try it out? Or to I need to just have a mic tech person replace the old connector with a new xlr connector? (I have no repair skills whatsoever). I would prefer to keep the mic in original condition and use an adapter if possible...Thanks!!

If you can track down a mating connector, then an adapter cable is pretty easy.

Without knowing more about the connector you've got, it's hard to say if there's an off-the-shelf cable out there for it.

Thanks! I'll try to hunt something down...has anyone out there ever tried one of these mics before? just curious if this is worth the pursuit...
