Hi there! I'd like to try induction recording. If you've done some induction recordings, can you post about the mic you used to help me decide which to get?
Thanks!
Thanks!
There are expensive induction mics? I know I can spend a few thousand dollars on a very nice conventional directional mic, a.k.a. "shotgun" mic.eyore said:There really is a choice of one (without getting into serious money or making your own - which some here have done).

Or you learn to wind your own induction coils. I haven't tried replacing the mild steel core in a retail telephone pickup with a ferrite core to see if that improves the pickup's sensitivity. The diameters of the available ferrite cores were all larger than the existing steel core. I think most ferrite components are sintered so they can't be machined. I.e., I couldn't simply put the ferrite rod in a lathe and turn it down to the proper diameter.eyore said:One wonders whether production of "our" mics will continue for much longer - stock up now!
