You can certainly design dynamic mics. They are typically more complicated than either condensers or ribbons. Many communicating chambers are usually required. A machine shop and electroacoustics knowledge would be helpful! If you just want capsules then search alibaba. Plenty out there but perhaps ...

looking at the graph, i dont see the low end strength on th 664, as it looks like a steady gradual fall from around 1k. Measuring LF response of gradient microphones has hardly been standardized over the years. At Shure we used a plane wave tube, which really emphasizes the designed in low cut. A o...

Hey Scott! I have the option of something like the transounds or to manufacture the capsules. But I have to agree the TSB-165 sounds very nice. I've messed with them a bit. changing the resonator and back vents. Right now it looks like a pretty good candidate. It sounds great in your side adress ali...

Long time lurker. Scott has done some great work with the Alice mics for sure. FYI, I am tooling up a DIY condenser microphone. It is however a small diaphragm pencil microphone. I've spent a good bit of time and money on the project, and I hope it sells well. We all can go to guitar center and buy ...
