You can make a piezo mic with one of those beeping speakers from post cards or old alarm clocks. Though it needs a lot of impedance to work properly (e.g. when you press the "instrument" button on your audio interface). When you solder cables to that beeping evil thing, you stick those gum like poster hanging things so it attaches to the surface properly. Try to record a glass of ice with it, and then pour some water. The crackling sounds are deep and thunderous.
Most of us have a fantastic recording device right in our pockets at almost all times now. And iPhone, or Android phone. And if you're doing industrial, those samples don't ever have to be pristine, so you don't need a top end microphone or anything for that stuff. I record all the time with it.
any chance you could maybe find a way to sell/ share some of your unused samples..? id like to hear that. gives cool insight into what a different persons world sounds like...just a thought
@@markoapokalypse1336 we’ll see… I’ve definitely given it consideration… I have friends and other music producer buddies that have asked as well… so I may actually do it
Nice! This video just got saved into my sample library.
Thanks, this was very helpful.
Just got introduced to your videos and I sample a lot and I use the janky microphone method need to get a zoom someday

@@BlackburnBigdragon that is the one thing I missed mentioning in the video, but it is true… our smartphones are a great tool for sampling as well!!
