As promised, here is the infamous SolderSmoke microphone, featuring duct tape, and supported by a Radio Shack "Third Hand."Check out the "popping on the letter P" audio filter I made out of a bathroom drain filter, a baby wipe, and duct tape. The previous effort using some foam from an old Walkman headphone is also visible.
Kind of appropriate, don't ya' think? I think this simple filter has helped with the audio problem.(Let me know what you think.)
Needs to be wireless to be truly a knack victim project.

ReplyDeleteHi Bill,
ReplyDeleteThe popping of the P is gone, but the hissing of the letter S is still there.

Yea, I notices the hissing on the S. What kind of plumbing device should I use for this? :-)
ReplyDeleteNext episode, I will experiment with some low pass filtering using the equalization feature of Audacity.
Please let me know if it makes things better.
To eliminate the 'S' sounds , a trip to the plumbing section of the hardware store for some brass pipe couplings might be in order.
ReplyDeleteSomehow all of my home-brew gear always works better with a pipe coupler or two.
The new antenna for my mobile is a such an example. :-) http://oh2ffy.50webs.com/carant/carant01.html
