Finally got around to modifying a TSB-165A capsule, cutting away the restrictions on the front of the capsule. As recently discussed the smaller holes form a...
... It sounds like you didn't damage the capsule too badly. And yes, the hype of the string squeaks seems to have been tempered by the mod. What was the...
Scott, I'm actually struck by how much alike the two microphones sound, even after your modifications. What I hear when I listen to your MP3 file as stereo is...
The two mics were about 8-10 inches away from the guitar, roughly pointed at the soundhole. They were actually rubber-banded together to make the position as...

Scott Don't mean to burst your bubble, BUT I like the sound of the stock Alice better. Of course my listening environment is not the best. I use a Sound...
Thanks for the comments. Some people really like the capsule (and therefore the Alice) just the way it is. Obviously there's a reason the capsule was ...
Sounds like a workable, if time-consuming suggestion. You're dead-on about spinning the capsule instead of the cutter, but I basically had everything to do it...
I probably should have stressed that I was thinking more in terms of doing several units (a couple pairs, or more) with a high level of repeatability and...
FWIW, I just picked up an old (late 1940's) 6" swing Crafstman metal lathe at an estate sale. Price was VERY reasonable. Considering the tooling that came...
Hello, ... Thanks for the reply. Could I interface the schema on the right to a stereo mini-jack with a 'plug in power' type of setup of 5 Volts? Maybe connect...
... Keeping the face plane perpendicular to the machining axis could be problematical in ANY setup - a circular part can easily cant to one side or the other...
... If you're cranking out a bunch of these, I imagine it might be worth it to get a brass collet that is a perfect fit, and a collect fixture if you're using...
... Definitely a problem with 3 and 4 jaw chucks. Get a dial gauge on a magnetic base to check the runout on the face before cutting. ... Definitely worth it...
I think what I'll do this time is just find a machine shop to do a dozen or so. At worst I know a guy an hour away that can definitely do this sort of thing...
I don't think that would work - you need a voltage difference between the source and drain of the FET. You could try running the audio output (to the right of...
It would work. The frequency response for the WM-54 is only 20-16k, instead of 20-20k, and it's a bigger capsule. But the rest of the specs look fine. -Scott...

Howdy, I did a very quick frequency analysis of Scott's L/R UnMod vs Mod mics and put the results in the files section under EngByREW's folder. When I listened...

Hey people, haven't posted much, but thats because I've been busy.... Finally finished my battery box, and I ended up mounting the capsule in an aluminium...
... Thanks, i'll check it out. More info is always better! FWIW, there is a group for these little lathes too. I've only been on for about a week, and not much...
