Iphone to Comrex BlueBox

[Johnfpaul]

I have been using the SIP APP Linphone to Comrex running Opus and it works well. It would be better if I could easily hook it to the cellular output of my BlueBox, then I could have a fully adjustable microphone and headphones with 4G versatility. Has anyone found a three conductor to four conductor cable that makes this an easy task?

I have used a similar version of this cable to directly hook up a dynamic Mic and headphones to an iPhone and it worked well.
May be a starting point..

I was going to say..with all the apps that allow encoding right from your I-Phone, why would you want to bother coming up with interface cables to separate devices? Seems rather clunky.

Thanks everyone for the advice, I found that iRig had a $20 microphone that allows you to talk and listen (built in headphone jack) that isn't terrible. This morning during my show I used it and as an emergency backup to a POTS codec or even an IP codec isn't bad. If you listen about 18 minutes in to this podcast I take a break leave the studio walk around and return to the studio. There is some echo and feedback from studio monitor speakers http://johnfpaul.podomatic.com/entry...09_17_58-07_00
Total investment free Linphone app and a $20 cell phone mic from iRig its not a Comrex Access but in a pinch could get you out of trouble on a remote.

You could drop a few more bucks and get the iRig Pre - it has a XLR connector so you can hook up any mic to it and it will still work when the cable to the cheapie mic on the iRig fails.

Cheapest solution is to get a camcorder audio-video cable - white and yellow go to the headphones, and red is the mic connector.
