Does any have any circuits of what is sometimes a stereo mic input on a PC that I presume is L/R/Gnd on the 3.5mm jack that you.
Also on some recorders you get a similar arrangement with '3v phantom power' mics.
I presume the bias resistor and dc decoupling capacitor are not mic side but pc...
as you can see this is the circuit that I made based on lm386N-1 whenever I connect my iPhone (it's a 5s if it makes any difference ) the sounds works great and clean only when I put it to max it has some distortions but when I connect the electret microphone it makes a lot of noise and hissing...
