Re: condenser fet transistors.
When making larger microphones, I wonder how east it would be to roll your own? I took a little electret mic apart a few years back but don't recall exactly what was inside. I do recall that it was

Or adding more diaphragms. Two mics, twice the signal, noise goes up by 1.4.

Re: condenser fet transisters.
only about the last point: the sony ecm 907 and others like it have more than an inch of wire from the capsule to the fet; the nakamichi cm 300 i have sitting in front of me has a one and half inch

From: "Rich Peet" <richpeet@...> I do nature recording, and would agree in general. However, I'd like to experiment with RF mics with diaphragms larger than 1/2" as well. And various boundary

Faint Field Microphone
You guys want to use 1/2" or bigger. I want to use 6mm and 9.7 is huge in my application, but if it were that much better I would consider it. I'll help you get bigger parts to play with. We all want

Re: Faint Field Microphone
Regarding connections on the capsule, i think 3-connections is the best way to go. Ground, source, and drain. In this case it's easy to use either linkwitz-mod, or any other powering method.

Can you build a better WM55?
Hi, mstrong. I record church music, choral works and loud pipe organ. My WM55 XY mic is useful because it's diminuative enough not to intrude on the service. It also produces a strong stereo image. So

WM-60/61 Final Input Please
No, I haven't eliminated anything as far as directional or size. Someone was interested in better 55's, others in 1/2", etc. All are interesting. I must focus on getting one thing at a time done, or
