The TLM 102 is a condenser mic. that requires 48V phantom power.

It is very very rare for a mic. input that puts out phantom power to use a TRS standard jack.

Are you sure you are plugging it into a mic. input with 48V phantom power? I suspect you are either using a line input by mistake, or a mic. input designed for dynamic mics. with no phantom power.

Ahh!

Or are you using a small 3.5mm jack with low voltage plug-in power coming out?

This won't work, either.
