I have a handheld recorder which does not have a "line in" socket. The
only input it has is a "mic" socket.

The manufacturers sell a lead which is used to attenuate the "line out"
from another device into my mic socket.

I would rather make my own lead. Obviously I don't want to alter the
frequency response.

What components would I need and in what configuration would they need
to be?


You can find example circuits for this at
