Hmmmm Feedback anyone....
 
instructions ofr making a microphone with a 6 inch or bigger or smaller diaphragm....


what you need -

car speaker 2 - 8 ohm
canare two core or star quad cable
neutrik tip sleeve jack

.....


strip an inch from the sleeve around the cable exposing the wires - should be one blue one white plus a shield. get rid of the paper and string.

don't forget the boot

solder the white wire to the tip part of the jack
solder the blue and the shield to the sleeve


then at the other end solder the white to the positive pole and the blue to the negative pole.

plug it all into your fx and your amp and you will have hours of glorious feedback stimulation with your new microphone.......

Did you come up with that yourself?

I'll probably try that. I just bought a soldering iron hoping I could do some circut bending or something, so this should be something good to start with.

i tried a pair of headphones into my amp once and that worked so i thought i would see what else would. the thinner the material the cone is made of the better. i'm gonna try an 18" sub driver soon

Yeah, I've thought about the headphone microphone, as well, but I've never done it. I also want to make a contact mic (is that what the headphones make?).

no, headphones just make a normal microphone, o contact microphone has to be physically in contact with what ever you are miciing to pic up the vibrations.
