Big sympathy on the tinnitus, Mark. - There was a theory that tinnitus could in some cases be recorded - there were tests done on this, with sensitive mics,...
My 85 year old mother has had some hearing deficiently most of her life. It is now becoming difficult for her to carry on a conversation. She has been to many...
We know that the human voice or perhaps better said "any sound we can hear is analog", right? So the - so called - digital microphone is better said to be a...
I've tried many things, including some of your suggestions. However, the only way that I can seem to hear any actual sound out of the capsule is to wire it...
Yes it would! And no it would'nt! There is the notion that everything in a studio MUST use a common word clock. This is simple, it is simply a square wave of...
... I would think doing this right would force the capabilities of the best pre-amps to be inside the mic. From what I have seen the USB mics are a far cry...
/There is the notion that everything in a studio MUST use a common word clock./ Mode 1 of AES42 gets around this by allowing the mic to run on its own crystal...
Okay chris... its a pity, that it didn't work out. If i had the schematic of the tascams inputs i would have been able to help better. Regarding a battery...
Thanks Johannes, I'll be more than happy to answer any questions and read any material I need to. My goal is to have a field interview mic, so the sounds can...
... If Sample Rate Converters in expensive DAWs is any guide, this is likely to provide poor results. SRCs with laughable anti-aliasing and the fashion for...
Several software SRC's are notable for their appalling performance, though some others are remarkably good. http://src.infinitewave.ca/ Isn't it strange,...
Okay, I want to send an update before anybody wastes any time on this. I ordered a recorder that is capable of providing true phantom power through balanced...
Hi In some circumstances, it can be useful to use stereo for field interviews - in the more structured situation, rather than quick Vox Pops. A personal mic...
We've used SRC chips for more than 10 years now, and paid all the attention to the level of performance, and never found any serious degradation. It is...
Dexter, There has been a fair bit of study of dead regions in the Cochlea by the people in B. C. J. Moore's group at Cambridge. See, for instance: ...
... The LNPrimer design in my Files directory does what you want with very high quality. Output is Line level so gives better results than most mike inputs on...
As a music teacher, I've seen some of my special education and elementary classroom compatriots use something similar the pocket device Eric talked about. I'm...
Hey guys, My name is Bergur and I have been following this group for a long time but never posted. However, now I really need your help so here comes my first...
For built in effects you can easily create a simple distortion in the mic with some diodes or a Fuzz Face circuit, but you might get a lot of feed back if you...
Hi this is my first post. I don't know the first thing about electronics but I can't afford to buy a set of condenser mics to record my drum kit so I have...
Yeah, I thought about something like this too but my customer wants it to be built into the mic. I was thinking maybe just some clipping diodes (no added gain)...
Well, the Panasonic WM-61A capsules are perhaps not first choice for recording a drum kit. A drumkit is loud, perhaps even to loud for these spsules? There is...
You're referring to electrolytic CAPACITORS, not resistors here. Resistors are generally tiny and come in very few different types. Anyway, the deal with...
.....would possibly be kind enough to modify a mic capsule for me? Or perhaps anyone who knows of anyone who sells them pre modified? I intend to make a pair...
The problem is, you need enough signal to make the diodes conduct, and that implies a lot of gain. It is no good for the diode to only conduct 'a little' as it...
... There are some cheap ready made microphones out there. Perhaps, it is your intention to do it your self? You could take a look at the Naiant microphones: ...
