is this a taboo/inflammatory topic?
i caught a glimpse of the phrase "ribbon mic transformer" on edcor's website which piqued my interest. the google search for diy ribbon mic was irresistible.
found this website http://www.diyaudiocomponents.com/.
for about R700 in parts and shipping, one of them could be made at home in your kitchen. you can buy a preassembled transducer, however they do also sell parts for you to assemble your own (inc folding the ribbon etc)..
what does anyone reckon the odds are that you will end up with something that will be usable on a semi-pro to pro quality level?
