I was wondering what precision and resolutions modern microphone technology equates to digitally. Taking into account any distortion, do you think that an...
Isn't it surprising that there aren't any commercial laser microphones around, don't you think it is the future of microphones? Lasers provide the ability to...
... Lasers are actually very noisy beasts. For static measurement where time domain averaging can be employed their precision is legend but for dynamic...
I don't know if lasers are as noisy as Bob says, but the real point here is that the actual motion of the diaphragm is noisy. This was a hard concept for me...
There already is a laser LP reading turntable. Laser interferometry is used effectivley in testing speakers and in measuring gravity waves too. On practical...
... My information on this wasn't base on my own research but on what David Josephson told me. He told me that they are so noisy that they are useless for...
... I'd think that if you could generate a train of short duration pulses and detect the return phase jitter that the amplitude noise would be irrelivant. --...

Bob, I didn't mean to cast any aspersions on the validity of your statement regarding the nosiness of lasers, but only to try to say that the noise problem...

I've been asking about recording quality. I just uploaded two files: - sample1.mp3, outdoor venue (festival stage), pretty loud - sample2.mp3, indoor venue...
... I didn't take it that way, I just realized that it was based on hearsay and thought I'd better qualify it. David's pretty darned qualified, but you never...
This isn't a mic problem but you guys seem to know a lot about the electronics as well so I'll give it a try. After travelling in my bag, the preamp was...

I just borrowed an ECM-908c from someone here. I'm going to try it out to record a (rock) show this week. The ECM-908c looks like the 907 except that its got...
Bob, Yes I am still here. Thanks so much for making sure! I use my work computer for internet connection...and IT is working out a new Bayesian filter,...
... Dear Toby, Maybe I can help you out. I've built a few battery boxes... Attenuation: The required level depends on the capsules you get. If you get WM61A...
Richard, I found only the first of your recordings in the files section. What follows are my opinions, which are worth every penny that you have paid for them....

The bottom end is rather different between the two clips. The bar sounds pretty good, the festival sounds rather more like a bass-heavy mix than anything with...
Could someone help me? I'm using a Panasonic WM-62 electret element and want to place a volume control about 18" from the mic on the cable. I'm not very ...
You don't want a volume pot to have any DC... that's where the scratchy noise comes from. You'll need to put the volume pot somewhere after the DC has been...

Richard, You're welcome. My, I do drone on, don't I? What I was trying to say is that the clearer sound that you are seeking is at least partly buried within...
