Can a shure AMS microphone be modified to be used as a normal microphone with a stock mixer. Can the rear facing mic be disabled. This mic is discontinued and I would like to use it without the auto mute special mixer (also discontinued)

Hi, I actually rebuild these mics and upgrade them. I'm an expert in the vintage 55's of all era's and the newer. If you are just looking to go back with the stock element of a 55sh2, or looking to upgrade your 55 vintage or new, with a SM58 a Beta 58, or a 87 Beta, I do all of that. All repaires from Hard mounted XLRs, screens, to polishing the surface back to new, or upgrade kits that you can put in yourself with my pictured instructions.

Unfortunately there is nothing that you can do. These mics are designed for user ONLY with Shure products as shown in the exceprt from the user manual below:
"
AMS microphones do not use standard phantom power. Only
use the 7 Vdc bias power provided by and AMS mixer. Connecting
the microphone to any other mixer or power source may
damage the microphone.

The mic requires phantom power from the mixer. Contact the mixer manufacturer to find out how to turn on phantom power.
