A certain fellow RU-vidr building mad stuff, with the name of Integza, has a very strong opinion on tomatoes. To that question, he would immediately answer "Tomatoes are disgusting!" haha. But I do think the opposite myself! I guess you needed a lot more amplification than what the input of the computer could provide. Very cool project once again!!
Oh lady, I learned absolutely nothing from your video. But... I loved you, your explanation, your hair, your humor, your editing, your purple duct tape, and your almost scientific method. You're the only content creator I watch at 2x because you speak too fast, and I still put you at 0.8x. None of this was a criticism, keep up exactly the same, pioneering electronics in your incredible way.
I like tomatoes but don't tell Integza I told you that! Nice project. Reminds me of a speaker I built when I was a young teen in the 90s using paper, tape, magnet wire and magnets. It sounded surprisingly good.
I recommend you to use a coil from a microwave dish motor, it has thousands of turns of a hair-thin coil, if it doesn't work with that it doesn't work with anything, just don't move a magnet near it quickly because it produces a lot of volts and can fry your recorder.
i'm sorry to be petty about this, but it's a bit disorienting when you move a stereo mic around. Amazing video! It's impressive how many important stuff came out of bell labs.
as someone that studied electrical engineering, even this blows my mind... This is so cool! you are really inspiring to just... do stuff! keep on going, im eager to see whats gonna come along the way!
Another tip from someone who does live sound - use a compressor! It is difficult to get your head around at first but if you dial it in right it can help immensely with keeping the sound consistent even when you move closer/further from the mic.
you could make a camera next cause of how much the camera goes out of focus lol, although it would be rly cool to see you build like the early potato cameras or any just rudimentary camera
man why are you literally me, i love that there are also generalist mad scientists out there. im a savant teen with too much knowledge in every field of science and just learning how things work and designing my own shit im even in the process of prototyping my own prosthetic arm. when it gets good enough to be better than my non dominant hand then im gonna amputate my arm to replace it. im studying anatomy. i plan on making it super durable and powerful. never selling out to lockheed or raytheon though! good luck in all of your stem ventures, and you dont need a fancy degree to replace your expensive consumer electronics with something better. liked and subbed and also notifs and all that.
I think this one is from Wisent (Bauhaus) if i were to guess. JR is on the wrong end of the planet. Also they're horribly inconvenient knives, hate this type of construction.
Please don't capture audio from your zoom recorder in stereo, you're constantly panning from left to right depending how off-axis you are from the microphone ;) If that's not possible within the recorder itself, then downmix the track back to mono when editing.
