[sudo-discuss] Re: How to make a Mini-XLR to 3.5mm cable?

Those both have 3.5mm male heads so they wouldn't be able to connect to the mic. After looking at Jake's suggestion, I got a new idea, I ordered the only adapter I could find with the right plugs https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D4PMNTKG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00… 0?ie=UTF8&th=1 and if it turns out the audio really is reversed then I'll bring it in to crack open and rewire it.
