Re: SMD transistors for Alice/Schoeps
My favourite PNPs for the output stage are the Nexperia BCM53DS and BCM857DS. https://www.nexperia.com/product/BCM53DS https://www.nexperia.com/product/BCM857DS Double, factory matched pair. No more
Re: SMD transistors for Alice/Schoeps
You could but I highly recommend the simple P48 if you need to go really small. It works really well. Best Regards, Jules Ryckebusch

Re: SMD transistors for Alice/Schoeps
Heh.? Haven't looked that circuit in a while, I guess. 2N5087 is the PNP output stage. Same thing applies, though - probably a lot of transistors will work just fine, I've done this on other things

Re: SMD transistors for Alice/Schoeps
I was doing PF5102 to replace the on5087, but those are also EOL. You could just try collecting all the major specs from the PF5102 and plugging those into the search on Mouser or Digi-Key.? I don't

Re: SMD transistors for Alice/Schoeps
Sadly that one is obsolete with through hole ones still available. I¡¯ve switched everything over to the OPA circuit. Best Regards, Jules Ryckebusch

SMD transistors for Alice/Schoeps
Hi All, Happy new year (if it¡¯s not too late to say it!) Any thoughts on SMD replacements (or improvements!) on the through hole 2N5087? I¡¯m looking to squeeze eight or more circuits onto a

Re: short pickup range options
In case it isn't obvious, the 4104 is STILL SOTA for its job. Anyone interested to DIY something with similar performance? We want a cardioid or Fig 8 with REALLY CRAP LF response to modify so I'm

Re: short pickup range options
The coles lip mic used by football commentators is a figure 8 ribbon mic. the HF from the rear is actually better than from the front because of all the pop filters and spit catchers that are put on

It's really amazing what you guys can conjure up from the depths of the microphone builder drawer. I'm impressed and delighted! ? **** What I¡¯m missing is that @cx b (clistburnham) didn¡¯t

Re: short pickup range options
Due to the reverse square law, a useful signal will distinguish itself better from the background when going close to the source. That's the main thing. Radio people sometimes opt for dynamic mics.

Re: short pickup range options
Yes but that¡¯s kind of different than having a physical distance limitation. I think most applications to accomplish what you may be trying to achieve use filters and gates. Like dynamic vocal mics

Re: short pickup range options
Yes, and so what? The sensitivity of a microphone can be altered by changing the preamp gain. Whatever the sensitivity/gain combination, the ratio between distant and close sounds doesn't

Re: short pickup range options
certainly there are "less sensitive" microphones, though, right? i suppose the most obvious example would be something like a piezo, where there would actually need to be direct contact with the
