Modification Jig for the Sennheiser ME 3 Microphone

Although intended primarily for the microphone retailer, the relatively low cost of this jig makes it a potentially practical advice for the small business with mulitipe speech recogntion users and the desire to use the "Modification" method of altering a Sennheiser ME 3 for use with speech recognition software.

Please be aware that Sennheiser altered their manufacturing technique in the fall of 2006 and microphones shipped to the US after September of 2006 can no longer be modified using this method or this jig. It should be considered only by those in possession of older Sennheiser ME3 microphones.

The device is simple, is constructed in cherry, and includes everything necessary to modify the ME 3 microphone with the exception of a small hammer.

Although you can read detailed instructions, the basic process is quite simple. Lay the jig on a table or other hard surface, insert the jack from the Sennheiser ME in the appropriate opening in the jig, attach the plastic "driving bolt" and give the bolt a soft hit with a small hammer. The locking ring will be knocked down the appropriate distance and the modification complete. The total time for a successful modification should be no longer than 30 seconds.

Purchase the Jig: The current cost of the jig is $35 plus shipping. To purchase a jig, please visit our accessories page.
