Re: Learning more - Ultrasonic Microphone building
When it comes to using studio mics for ultrasonic recording - and especially for outdoor nature recording - then I think the Sennheiser MKH8020 would probably be hard to beat ? .....? Extended upper

Re: Learning more - Ultrasonic Microphone building
Actually it depends very much on what one expects.
I've done some experiments with ultrasonic response of typical studio mics.
Using cymbals as the source, one finds out there is significant energy

I too would be interested to learn how soundwichartist makes the appropriate measurements.....
I have found that measuring the detailed ultrasonic response of mic caspules is not an easy task,

Re: Learning more - Ultrasonic Microphone building
As Underwood suggests in his post, the ultrasonic response of some MEMS mic capsules can be quite good ...... Certainly better than most electrets in my experience.

Re: Learning more - Ultrasonic Microphone building
Lots of cheap MEMS mics go higher than 40k.

Learning more - Ultrasonic Microphone building
Learning more about building ultrasonic microphones, I posted a while ago about ultrasonic electret mics. I've found the advantages of them for sure, being nice and easy. learning more and more

Re: Active noise cancelling for microphones in noisy environments - techniques?
I thought I'd provide an update to all of this...
I decided to focus on the General Aviation scenario because I do that more often. I wanted active noise cancelling headphones and microphone but was

At the output of the mic preamp.

Re: Microphone Output Impedance
Dear Jerry,
I don't understand you impedance test jig.
Microphone connect to pre-amp input ?
after, measure pre-amp output ?
Where should the audio analyzer be positioned?
The signal generator is

Re: Microphone Output Impedance
I have uploaded the file Microphone impedance test jig, which uses the signal injection model (IMO a less brutal method than the added load method).
You calibrate the unit by making R1 and R2=zero

Re: Microphone Output Impedance
OK, that's the problem with using a commonly accepted name for a different contraption.
So you should consider using a switch to connect/disconnect the potentiometer.

Thanks you for your reply, Jerry,
A DI Box is not referring to any commercial product. I was simply talking about a device I made by connecting XLR connectors on both ends and attaching a variable

I would suggest there is a better method, that requires a balanced signal generator.
What "*Audio Analyzer" do you intend to use?

Re: Microphone Output Impedance
You can't do that, because you don't know the gain (or attenuation) of the DI box.
What value is this potentiometer? Ideally it should be about 500 ohms.

Re: Microphone Output Impedance
This is not mandatory for a connection to qualify as balanced.
The condition for being balanced is that both in-phase (hot) and out-of-phase (cold) pins present the same Common Mode impedance, i.e.
