      You can insulate the ground wire with heat shrink, hot glue or silicon. Or a clever way to make your piezo disc unique is to house the wired side inside a small plastic cap. You can be creative too and create your own clay cap.

    • @ThePhilStudio

      Hey there! Thank you a lot for the comment! Plugging piezo in serie will not work. In parallel, you will probably need a “mixer”. Could be a 100K potentiometer for each piezo. The best would be to have multiple OP-amp to mix all piezo.

    How to build a professional contact microphone (pewr considerable depth)? Instead of using a very ordinary piezo, it is better to use a condenser microphone capsule and so on. Don't you think so? Let me know!!! Thank you very much.

    • @ThePhilStudio
      @ThePhilStudio  2 роки тому +1

      Hey there, thanks for the question! I really like these condenser mic. The electret mics are easy to use and you can obtain great result with them but they are really cheap. The condenser mic require more complexe circuit, I never built one yet. The piezo is a great option for acoustic instrument since you will pick up only the vibration and few noise.

      Hi there. Make sure the connection has no short. Also, make sure your piezo is working. Since this is not a complicated circuit I would check these 2 things first.

    • @ThePhilStudio
      @ThePhilStudio  10 місяців тому

      No, this type of mic will only work on a solide surface. For the voice you would be better with an electret microphone which I also made a video on. Thinking of it, I guess the piezo could be placed flat on your chest and would probably be able to capture some signal if you talk or sing, but it would be pretty "bassy", defintly worth trying!

      Sure! Best would be to solder it to a connector to make it non-permanant but if you want to create a small pre-amp circuit, it would be good. My guess would be to add a small volume potentiometer to keep a good control over the signal output.

      Thanks for reply. i came here from cigar box guitar videos. pick up is made with piezo (or coil) nicest thing in a cigar box guitar is that you can make it with cheap things. if you are lazy and go shopping in sites like CB Gitty, it costs a fortune, i hate that they even sell the paper templates with the right fret spacing like they invented the Blues (lol) put the damn thing in PDF! it's public knowledge! my electronics ability is very basic but if i can i fix whatever, sometimes it's just a wire broken, a resistor or a internal fuse blown. recycling certain pricy components could be an idea for a new of yours video serie. especially today we throw anything and we are full of trash.

      find piezo in auto buzzers.like when the door is open, smoke alarms & similar, carbon monoxide detectors. some home security devices, that attach to windows & doors. they are 2 pieces & when the window is opened it seperates the one with iron core away from the one with a magnetic reed switch & it triggers the piezo alarm. old wrist watches , any kind of timer with an alarm chime or buzzer, such as a microwave or even a kitchen stove/range, my (Air Cond. window unit) is digital & when i use remote to change settings, it makes a chime noise. musical greeting cards will have piezo, there is a lot more places to salvage them.. childrens toys will have a lot of them.

    • @TheScreamingFrog916
      @TheScreamingFrog916 10 місяців тому

      Smoke detectors, have it in them.
      The smoke dectors have a 10 year life expectancy, and need to be replaced every 10 years.
      So you can take them apart, after you replace them, and take the piezo buzzer out of them.
      As others have said, anything that beeps or buzzes, probably has one in it.
