I just found another mic capsule on an Arduino MAX9814 board. Took that off to try again.
?
Without calibrated, much better audio! Adjusted mic gain and compression. I set the noise gate to 30 and everything else as default. Still not perfect but very much improved and very usable!
?
Ran the calibration through and left every thing else as it was and the audio is very rough.
?
I'm going to factory reset it again and dial in the setting I was happy with and leave it at that, unless anyone has any suggestions to improve calibration results to improve the audio.
?
Note that there is a lot of merit in what Hans says. Not every electret mic are the same. This last one that I found on an Arduino board seems to work nicely.

Cheers,
