Best instructional video I'v ever seen.
This is the BEST way to learn anything on youtube. Please make tons of videos like this!
Thanks man for making this video! :D
Best lesson I've ever taken about electrects!
Very well explained, now I know what every component is used for instead of just following a recipe.
Many thanks!
I really enjoyed your reasons for selections of the circuit components. Absolutely brilliant!
What a phenomenal tutorial. You explain things in a way, that makes it easy to absorb, and understand, unlike mainstream academia which teaches in a very sterile, and emotionless manner. Because of you, and the way you connected that Electret Mic to an, "O-Scope", I finally understand the minuscule amount of voltage produced by the Electret, and why one generally needs to add some type of amplification immediately following the Mic. All I can say is Thank You for making learning, intriguing.
There are several things I really appreciate in your video. You first show is what type of output that comes in the Oscilloscope. Then we know what we are dealing with. They you develop the most simplified amplifier. No gimmicks, just a simple amplifier. It does a good job. Things work. If it works, cant complain. Enjoyed your video and recommended to my younger brother too! I learnt a lot having a decade experience in electronics and my brother will learn a lot too. Thanks.
This is possibly the best explanation I've ever heard. Thanks a lot man. Hope you will do some video about the DIY studio quality mic ;-)
me too
ProXicT ya of course.. Please Sir For Us.... Do it
ProXicT just SUBSCRIBED Now you Have to make Diy video 😊
i like the approach of showing each block added to the previous. thank you.
I just finished building your circuit. It worked out great. Your explanation of how to build the circuit was very easy to follow. Thanks a lot.
I really like this video. You explain why some parts of the circuit need to be modified/upgraded to a better schematic with more components. As far as a video which teaches you the WHY aspect of things, this is second to none. Great job explaining yourself and why you built it the way you did. If only all my teachers I encountered through school explained the WHY part as well as you do in this video! Thumbs Up!
Nicely explained. One of the few sources that explains what each component in the preamp circuit actually does.
Fantastic job. I love the way you explain your way through each part of the schematic.
THANK YOU ! Clear explanations, clear diagrams, great video! You are an awesome human being !
Thanks for sharing with us :)
Lots of Love
That was a great explanation! With the schematics, the oscilloscope... Just awesome. I wish more CZcams content was like this. Subscribed. Keep it up!
This is great. It's a simple circuit and I haven't heard noises. It's fantastic. Good job man. Congrats!
Very good video and I like the way you explain everything you are doing in not too technical terms. making it easy for anyone to follow. thumbs UP :-)
What an awesome video with great detailed explanation. Great learning. Thank you for sharing.
Built it and used it as input to an Lm386 audio amplifier IC. Works. Also, a good explanation of how it works. Cheers. I will add it to my Electrocircuit page.
Its always so satisfying to see an amplified signal from mic.
8 years later And still cool! 🤤
You saved me! Thank you so much for such clear instructions!
Please keep up this great work.
The best detailed explanation! I'm gonna make one for a Djembae drum recording.
thank you so much for the video, you explain the circuit diagram in a way that is easy to comprehend and allows one to understand how the components and each part of the circuit works instead of following directions with no fundamental knowledge. keep making. vids
Very nice presentation! Thanks! I like your posting the circuit diagrams and waveforms!
Very good :-)
good talk about the basiscs. I like how easy you try to bring over not soooo easy parts.
looking forward for the next vids.
Great job, thank you - just what I was looking for! Now I'm off to build my prototype (of which an electret microphone is but one component)!
Fabulous explanation. Really enjoyed learning. Thanks for sharing ✨✨✨👍
Loving your channel. it's inspiring me to learn electronics to be able to do projects like this.
I'm looking forward to seeing your usb driven professional studio quality mic
amazing video! I normally learn hands on but this teaches me just by watching thank you! subscribed. please make more.
That´s a really great instruction video. I'd like to see more of these.
I´m going to build this little amp by myself an play around with it...
The way you explained it explains and coincides with a recent experience of learning about pull up resistors in SPI communication in Arduino. This is similar. I can now see how they are used in your circuit which seems to be a very clean, simple and pure circuit. Good luck on your microphone idea.
This circuit works well and easy to add second stage.. Thank you. Nice video.
It is probably the best explanation of this topic in CZcams
This is exactly what I needed, and is exactly what I wanted to do! Thank you so much for this video
Sounds better in that room with that new mic you put together
Nicely done, excellent explanation!
Excellent. Gradually building the circuit with apt explanation..
I watched meybe 100 videos abaut this topic this is the best one. Thank you.
where we can find the bc547c ???
Greetings from India.This is the best demo of electret microphone amplification project I've seen. Very methodical, step by step aporoach, principles working, reason for capacitive coupling/ dc voltage elimination , amplification , displays, circuit diagram, intermediate and final results make it a delight to watch.👏👏👍 kudos.
Some oops moments make it more interesting and lively too😀
Look forward to more
THANK YOU VERY MUCH !!! Clear and Useful information you gave to us.
great video mate and top explanation as to how and why it works :)
Shit! I think I just subscribed on purpose to someone who gives GOOD detailed explanations of what he's doing and why it's working/not working. I hope all the videos are like this. GREAT JOB! THANK YOU!
Love the sound fx on 'AMPLIFIED'.
Great explanation of electronics fundamentals step by step.
GREAT vid Bitluni...!!! Want more..👏🏾👏🏾
Im subscribed..🌟💫
that was great man, i learned alot
nice project with very good details, thanks!
Excellent presentation!
All my questions has been answered.. Thanks mate,,,
Wow... very interesting!!! thanks for sharing
Thanks. I thiiiink... I followed,... just about... perhaps one where I have to experiment with the scope a little as I build it to understand what goes on with the voltage levels (was a little lost as to where the 0.8v came from) or try on the javascript circuit simulator to get a better idea of what goes on. Really appreciate you building it up as gradually as you can though and showing what comes out at different stages. No one else does that that I can remember. Really helps with the learning.
Hey just quick question, do you think we can connect this to a phone instead of a computer's sound card and still get the waveforms?? I installed wavepad, which is like audacity but for phones.
thank you man, i can't afford a great quality mic for my videos this helped me to improve my DIY lavalier mic.
that video makes very clear to understand using a capacitive microphone
Very good explanation, will try this as preamp for my guitar.
Great video. Thank you. I would like to see more about high speed ADCs.
thank you! you are genius!! really appreciated your video, thanks again :)
Excelente video, muchas gracias, me has sacado de un gran apuro!!
That's a great video. One missing details is that inside the electret capsule there's a usually a JFET transistor doing the initial amplification.
Wow, great man! Thank you very much!
Really good explaination!
Very helpful video. Thank you!
I know this is an old video, but I built your circuit, and I made a correction, to get way more gain and to not cut off the low tones -> replace the 100nF caps with 47uF ones. Much better!
Great video by the way :)
Thanks you for mic knowledge...
Good quality sound recording to pc
Thanks! I loved this.
Hi
Being relativly new to electronics i was wondering how you would connect this to a LM836 audio ic with a small headphone set
Kind regards
Hola, muy buen video, pero me ayudarias mucho si me respondes esto: que hago para detectar los sonidos graves (bajos) de la musica a una distancia de 10 metros? estoy tratando de hacer un vumetro y necesito que el microfono sea capaz de detectar el sonido del ambiente a una distancia considerable.
I wasn't able to eliminate distortion with this circuit. In the end I went for the LM386 preamplifier circuit and worked perfectly. I have a great soundig condenser mic in my guitar now and mix the signal with the undersaddle piezo.
Good demonstration.
Very well explained, thankyou :)
dankeschön. für nen ab&zu-löter wunderbar aufgeschlüsselt.
Yoiu are magic. Must watch video for anyone studying anything!!
I want to use an electret microphone connected to a stethoscope so I can hear the blood flow would you use this preamp to do the job any suggestion would be good thanks
Excellent explanation..!
Is the studio mic with crazy adc out yet? If not, eagerly waiting for it!
Great Video! Have you ever seen any buildups of a stereo mic? I have an Audio-Technica AT822 and lost my wiring on it. I am trying to rewire it, but not sure how to pull that off.Thx in adv
Liked & subscribed, very well explained!
Excellent video
very helpful video. tomorrow morning, I'll try to do it.
but I want to ask a question, do I need to change the circuit if I'd like to use magnetic head instead of microphone ?
nice kool! thank you i am a new circutboard guy you are informative thankyou
This reminds me of an amplifier experiment I made a long time ago. It was a 2 transistor, 2 transformer push pull amplifier that I connected a 24inch speaker(with it's own transformer) to the INPUT as a mic. and headphones to the OUTPUT. I was outdoors and could hear someone whisper from 50 feet away.. The amplifier was powered by a 9 volt battery.
Your video is superb. I am doing a mini project named multi purpose listening device in which i have to do the work which u explain in your video . Bcoz of yours i got a idea how to do
Simple and it works. Thanks!
Great!!! Magnificent realization with the mic capsule. I am now going to search for the components and repost it. Apropos can you recommend me an environmental recorder to record the noises that are present in my house, refrigerator noise, heating, voices of neighbors talking at night (with a wireless multi-frequency microphone those used for karaoke and so on). Finally, I would like to use a condenser capsule but I don't have the mosfet schematic in hand. I thank you and look forward to info. Thank you very much. Hi.
Thanks a lot,, was funny... and works with great quality sound...
This video enlightens some of the question I had in mind. Great video sir. on the other hand, Do you have any videos about piezo pickup or piezo ceramic pickup that is used for acoustic instruments? are there any specific type piezo? also can they be in any form or size? please let me know if you have any, I've been doing research about this and haven't seen any video around. Thank you.
Hi, great video. Thanks for that. One question. If I want to use 3 to 5 microphones at once (i want to build a microphone set for an accordion) do I need to have an amplifier for each microphone? Thanks for your time
Nice job!!
Great work
Very good explained, i was looking for something that could explain me is the electret could be able to produce energy, now i know is not possible. By any chance, do you know what kind of mini microphone can we use like a dynamic one?
Thanks bitluni's lab Enjoyed your video.
best explanation....
Hi,
very nice tutorial, +1. I wannt to ask if you can show us stereo amp with dual these microphone, using PC Line input.
Thank you and Merry Christmas.
you could just make two of these and link the second one to the other pin of the audio jack.
super useful video...thanks
This is awesome! A note: *PLUGIN POWER*! Google it!
I didn't know myself about this until a few days ago, but apparently there is around 3V coming from the sound card at the mic plug, specifically to power electrets. I'm not sure of the current capabilities or if you can drive a transistor amp with it, but if you can and it's clean enough this design can be used without external power. I'm thinking of trying to make a passive noise canceling arrangement with two out of phase electrets that can be an add-on mic for headphones.
very nicely explained thanks
ProTip: ajust the 10k current-limiting resistor to adjust mic sensitivity/output level. Really helps a lot with MSGEQ7 for instance.
Very cool, thank you!
Men, today i did see your channel and is very interesting the videos, i am from mexico and now i follow you (Y)
hi, nice explanation video there...
can i use the exact same circuit u have made as a microphone for arduino project (frequency reading) with supply voltage 3.3 V?
I took one of these micro[phones from an old touchtone handset. I wired It dIrectly to an xlr cable and plug it into the Mic channel on my guitar amp. it works ok, has a nice radio mic vibe..
What would this microphone setup be useful for?
