Here are some detailed pages on how I made
several types of microphones.
I have included circuits, lots of photos, notes, even Mouser (and other) BOM's.
When I started doing this, I knew nothing
more than how to read a circuit and do some soldering.
I just invested in a Dremel tool, and it has made doing this even more fun.
Small Cardioids
- the first ones I built. (with sound samples)
Omni Thinner even then
the Cardioids. Great for all kinds of recording. (with sound samples)
Large diaphragm
Cardioid - Beautiful vocal microphone. (with sound samples)
