The capsule and phantom circuit, assuming the Linkwitz mod, will go quite loud. When I did some crude testing with a 100 watt amp into a guitar speaker, I...

I wouldn't worry about running reasonable lengths of wire to the capsule. Thanks to the internal FET it's fairly low impedance, and with the phantom circuit...
Anyone use WM55's as drum mics? The low-end rolloff concerns me, except I've read where this is actually desirable since typical close-miking of sanres & toms...
While condensers are fine for some things, for big resonating membranes like drums you just can't beat a large dynamic. I can't describe it with numbers, but...
Haven't tried it yet, but some day... mostly I'm worried about physical issues like being hit with a drumstick. But I'm planning on trying out my stereo mics...
... I've used wm55s in XY as an overhead, and they work pretty well. You can hear them here- http://www.rocketradio.com/artist/29/ I've only got one song up at...
Room Coloration and Compression I am wondering how I can rid myself of room coloration while recording in a studio. There are no options at this point to...
... The only real way is to treat the room. Maybe you can open doors or windows. Keep mics away from the walls. ... I think you are thinking of a "gate" as a...
Joseph, I don't think that using a compressor will help at all! But you do have a few options. The first one is to place the microphones very close to the...
After a bit of breadboard experiments, I've settled on the more Shoeps-like circuit, similar to what dayVel uses. I was able to get it a few dB quieter than...

I've now completed a couple of mics with the TSB-165A capsule. Pretty simple setup, the usual circuit plus a FET and 1G ohm resistor to match with the ...
No better time than the present to test out my shiny new mics based on the TSB-165A capsules. Here's the stereo mic, recorded in hopefully the same setting as...

Like Scott, I also felt compelled to do a stereo mic with the TSB165s. This has prevented me from completing my promised "all TranSound" recording, although I...
Nice looking mic, Dave. Mine all look the same on the outside, although the 165s were a tight fit in that 1" (really 1-1/8" ID) pipe I've been using. I'm...
