Re: SimpleP48 -- Polarity

What is + on a prepolarized condenser capsule ?

Is it where the resistor going to the positive supply + should be connected ?

Or is it the positive pressure applied to the diaphragm ? coming out on capsule + ?

Jules Ryckebusch sent a schematic that proves that + goes to pin 3 but that is inverse?
polarity according to said .png schematic due to the actual 1 cycle sinus input to the
diaphragm which IS a positive pressure increase before the diaphragm and that is in?
polarity with what comes out on pin 2 exactly as the standard predicts.

Positive pressure on diaphragm should give positive rise on pin 2 XLR.
Schematic is correct.

So I would hazard to claim that the + sign should indicate to be connected via a resistor?
to a positive + voltage and has nothing to do with polarity.
