TapeOp Issue 16

Post by AAAprentice » Fri Aug 23, 2013 9:15 am

Hi!
Quick question. I have heard on the interwebs that Tape Op's issue 16 details how to make your own condenser mic. Is this true? And if so, how can I purchase this issue?

Thank you for the help,
Marc

Yes it does. The design is for a little condenser mic that runs off a 9 volt battery.

I can photocopy the article for you if you want.

If you try it, buy several capsules ... they are cheap and very small. I have clumsy fingers and this was the point where I got stuck on the project (which is relatively simple) ... I had trouble getting the capsules safely installed.
