Home-Made Crystal Microphone

Using a peizo speaker and some common household items, I made a working microphone. God my camera sucks, it's NEVER happy with the lighting conditions.

@confidence69 For someone who has the word confidence if their username, you certainly don't seem to give much. Besides, this was an experiment, I already have a few microphones.

why is your voice so high pitched?

[CoolDudeClem]

@MiracleKD18 Cos I trained it not to break, I'm staying a kid for the rest of my life.

Block penaloza805 now. He's a little a stupid little bitch who posts nasty comments about people's videos.

also do the same to TheGillianKey, they like to poke abuse at everyone.

you are so cool. i wish i was you!

would have been better if you'd show it Step by step!

its good to see someone being creative though it does help lots of others those who like making things as such.

Do try making step by step video you'll get lots of Thumb UP + views.

Good luck

@confidence69 Shush.

[TheJackMole]

this is fucking insane. kudos.

interesting. i know a piezo bender like you have used works as a contact mic pretty good on it's own. the tinny "mid range honk" sound generally comes from high and low pass filters cause by the capacitance from cable + piezo running into your recording device's input resistor (something like that). A high impedance input buffer preamp could help - maybe even a charge amp. I think that could be my next experiment - gotta get hold of some of that crystal first. nice vid from 3 years ago - cheers
