0:15 ..... or just repair / replace the USB Socket!
IRFZ44 he got money,he dont care
He just wants a new microphone :v
IRFZ44 its in the name of science
Sometimes we need the excuse to buy something new.-:)
LabFiona True Thats what I do
I really like this "DIY or buy?" series. I always ask myself that when I need something.
My choices are usually diy or go sit and cry lol be broke
@@Aydentv same haha
Are you sure your sound card did not affect the recording of the diy mic ? Because the studio mic has an integrated sound card that might be better than your computers internal one!
Maybe, maybe not. A lot of modern computers have great audio codecs that can be just as good as a usb microphone or its studio XLR counterpart.
This discounts the fact that XLR is a balanced signal and usb is digital.
I would not use USB for voice over and sure as hell not a standard soundcard.. Dude it will never get as good as an XLR. Because of signal to noise ratio
you're right,but i doubt the point that the studio microphone was invested too much in the the ADC chip.Because the microphone by the way has to be connected to a dedicated audio interface before the computer.
@@INeedAttentionEXE No matter what at some point the analog signal travelling along the XLR cable will get digitized for use on a computer. And so having it built into the mic means there is no cable length for signal degredation (you can think of the USB mic having a XLR cable length of nearly zero, assuming it's balanced circuit topology)
@@sophiophile Yeah, yours is the best comment I've ever seen in this channel. point delivered.
I work with audio for a living and train high schoolers as well. This is an interesting and quality explanation of condenser mics from the functional standpoint. Definitely going to incorporate this video into my curriculum!
Love the DIY or Buy series. The DIY microphone definitely has its applications! Thanks for your schematic
Hey greatscott maybe you can make a diy or buy episode about lipo balance chargers, or even a episode on how to build them. Because there are not a lot of diy lipo balace chargers on the internet and buying one is a little bit expensive. Besides that, if we know how to make it we can make more safe battery packs in our diy devices, for instance: make an electric longboard with batterypack and built in charger so you only need to plug in an adapter and dont have to plug the bttery out everytime you charge or have a less save batterypack with a bms.
I hope you will see this! And loove your vids, one of the best youtuber
I put it on my to do list
I'd like to see a vid about this as well, so +1 from me
GreatScott! Im looking forward to it
Hey guys, just my take on this subject, i think that it would be a lot easier to a buy a cheap sub $20 charger than to make one.
Ditto
Thanks again for the awesome build and advice. I implemented your build for a simple Skype mic and worked like a charm. Your videos are youtube-electronics classics. Keep it up. Stay safe
Thanks for the video - I have an old broken condenser mic at home which I was always too scared to try and fix but your explanations are helpful enough for me to try and look! :)
Excellent video! I have been using for years a diy mic in my videos. it works for me xD cheers

I think this test is unfair. Electret microphones needs some housing to avoid the "echo". To make it somewhat similar, I at least would put the band-pass filter in the condenser mic.
I also can't confirm that microphone capsules aren't sold separately - they are and that would be a fair comparison IMHO.
7:08 He did add band-pass filter.
@@kevinbissinger yeah this is what i thought. With a good electrec capsule and proper placement it can sound nearly as good it not just as good as a studio microphone
Yeah, this was almost like comparing speakers in a cabinet vs speakers without a cabinet.
@@siontheodorus1501 are these electret ones need an additional power as one of the plate is permanently charged
One project that I actually did. And it works well
Kudos to great Scott for taking the time to make these projects and videos
This is great.
Now i have the solution to my camera Microphone recording.
Small and compact for this kind of use.
Wooow wat a great project Scott
"usb studio microphone" is an oxymoron
Your efforts always add quantum shift to my growing understanding.
Thanks and best wishes 😊👍
You are the man!! Your vids are very informative and professional thank you for giving us your time and knowledge.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!! Such cool ideas and explanation. Please never stop!
I think that reducing both filters (lowering the low pass and extending the high pass frequencies) could greatly improve the resulting sound of voice recording.
Hey scott, great video! Very interesting. I wonder, could you show how to make a noise cancelling circuit for such a microphone to increase the audio quality? Or perhaps for noise cancelling headphones?
That was really helpful. Thank you for making this video. I love this channel and your work.
As always, a great video! Thanks Scott
You could have also replaced the usb port!
True, but that would have spoiled the fun of playing around with electret mics.
GreatScott! I've always wondered how to actually use these electret microphones so this was definitely better than replacing the USB jack
Agree
Wouldn't make for a good t.bone stealth ad.
@GreatScott... also the video would've been kinda shorter ;)
For the next diy or buy: a 3d printer
too much work tbh buy a cheap one for around 300€ and you are good
YES!!!
Yes please
120€ gives you a DIY kit that already kinda works - you can't beat it price wise even just for the parts cost, and if you decide that it's not good enough, you already have 5 actually very good quality motors, a decent if somewhat exotic and undocumented board, a good enough hot-end that can do massive temperatures, and lots of other parts which are honestly not particularly good (feeder, heatbed, mechanicals) but just about work, so perfectly suited for modification or rebuilding. And the frame is from melamine plywood, so you won't ruin it by drilling some new holes into it. It's the CTC i3 Pro B that you get on eBay, and the EU import tax on it has already been paid by importer.
Reprap project is open plans for DIY the cost is mostly in the stepper motor drivers ultimately you will need to fix or fiddle with the thing. I built a prusa i3 reprap based kit machine for $300 have two of my friends prebuilt 3d printers sitting here broke because he doesn't know how to fix them, meanwhile I upgraded mine to have an enclosure and use a Bowden extruder and print flexible materials... Point is the knowledge in that arena pays off.
Great Video , thank you for this one, even I got 40 years exp. in electronic this was something I do not know well, never tested never tried, just used studio mic , or my gaming headset mic to record videos and that is, now I do understand things much better. Thank you man. You really carry your nick with right on it. You are great.
Great video as always!
I would definitely love a video about "how does a tuner work".
I just use a Samson Go mic. It's a steal for $40!
3:29 nice search suggestions
WTF eBay!
I think that he love Chevrolet... But I'm not sure...
He did not clear his history😁
Why there is "Condoms" on his search suggestions...Lol
Excellent video. Watched this 5 minutes after I ordered my new USB studio microphone. After all, it still was a good choice. Thanks for sharing.
Man do I wish I that I'd studied electrical engineering when I was younger. You make this look easy! thanks for the videos.
Nice job yaar... Don't be upset over negative comments.
Hey, maybe you can make a small surveillance system (camera and network to connect to phone) for your shed? Using a camera and seeing whenever someone is in the frame of the camera. Also you can have it notify you if there is. You can compare a DIY or whether to buy it.
If you go to woodgears.ca, Mattias Wandel has some software a a video or two on something like that up with a Raspberry Pi. He used it to monitor a mouse trap and a maze. Go to wooden machines & contraptions -> Raspberry Pi holder and scroll most of the way down (he's a woodworker, but he was an engineer for RiM so he does some electronics as well).
You'll still need to connect it to a network and set it up to notify your phone, but that's more of a networking thing than an electronics thing.
I think I finally understand high and low pass filters as a side effect. Awesome video...thanks
Yayyy...Thanks for this excellent video along with theory explanation... Definitely my next DIY project.
I wouldn't have minded seeing you fix the old studio mic, I'm sure most of the quality is nested in that capsule
Please make for DIY noise cancelling headphones
I put it on my to do list
Thanks a lot.
Waiting for that.
GreatScott! Hi Scott love from India....:)....!!!
Good idea.
You’re great, Scott! Great video, as always!
Great video. Much was learned by watching your presentation. Thank you. 😊
With your knowledge about electronics, wouldn't it be cheaper to replace the broken USB port?
Naaaaah.
True, but that would have spoiled the fun of playing around with electret mics.
Same thought here... Perhaps that wouldn't have resulted in such an interesting video, but maybe it would have gotten a better value for money. Earlier today I repaired a much less expensive USB cable by replacing the connector. So I would certainly try to repair a nice studio microphone priced at nearly 100 euros...
@GreatScott: Thank you for making another nice video, but how about changing this series into "Repair, DIY or buy"?
Plus it wouldn't have generated a few DMarks in ad revenue ;D
@@greatscottlab not only was it fun for you... it is very educational for all of us viewers!
8:59 lel quite disapointed for a 57€ RODE mic... t. bone are the best haha
For the next DIY or Buy, a metal detector will be interesting. I know there are a few videos on basic versions but building a professional quality one would be very interesting. Great channel BTW, I've learnt so much from this great man and love this channel!
Thanks,
this was a good explanation of the differences between a condenser and electret microphone, the schematics for the microphone preamplifier where also interesting.
I'm going to modify a TI84 graphing calculator to make phone calls. Now I know how to get the microphone working, thanks!
BoomBrush even with a microphone, how are you going to make phone calls?
using a SIm5320E module with an arduino using the IO port on the calculator to transfer the phone number.
Great niche idea, find retro handheld games and put smartphones in them.
BoomBrush I’m subbing to you I wanna see this
Jesus thats sketch.
I Love it.
So that's what phantom power is about when talking about mics. I had always wondered. I assume the music was from audioblocks?
+Wholly Mindless Correct
Patreon supporters get to watch the videos earlier.
+Senpai Kur I think Patreons get to watch videos earlier than others.
Well actually no! Phantom power is indeed usually 48 volts but it requires the use of a microphone transformer at each end of the microphone cable. Some early high quality mics like the AKG c451E (STILL sold today, unsurprising really as it's a superb high quality mic, yet I was using this exact same microphone in 1971!!) used (uses?) a separate power supply for ease of use where phantom power was unavailable from the mixing desk (where it usually is derived or supplied). The subject is an interesting one and worth checking out on Wikipedia. Much has changed in the industry since my first job as a professional TV sound engineer after graduating, but phantom 48v power and microphones fed from it are still around and old (1970's) microphones can still be used seamlessly in modern studios or on stage rigs without problem - witness the c451E mic already mentioned. Because true phantom power requires 3 wires (2 for balanced audio and the positive 48v feeds plus an audio return) it integrated, and still does, very nicely with the ubiquitous ITT/Cannon 3 pin connectors seen on all professional audio equipment since before I was a boy.
Where a 1/4" jack plug (6.35mm) is used it is NOT a balanced feed and in this case in order to provide phantom power a separate power supply will be used that has a built in transformer of appropriate type to which the two-core screened and balanced mic cable is attached (implies that you MUST have a balanced microphone at the other end or an equivalent adaptor from single ended to balanced feed) and which also provides an unbalanced output to connect to the mixing desk.
Check out the Wiki, but also bear in mind that POE in the IT world is also a phantom power scenario and utilises the balanced signal transformers contained within modern (relevant ones) Ethernet RJ44 jacks. The separate POE injector units you can obtain do the exact analogous job of the separate 48v phantom feed units in the audio world. BOTH use 48v, 24v and 12v within the standards and at a basic level work in EXACTLY the same way - providing noise rejecting remote power to devices along the signal cable
Phantom power is just electricity that is needed to operate the microphone. It is a DC signal that is then converted into sound waves by the difference in capacitance between the two plates.
this is an amazing series idea, keep going please
Great Job @GreatScott! making this video
please can you do 3d printer diy or buy?
Its time for a update on this Video. Watch DIY perks Building a quality USB-C microphone. And make a better one :)
Hi Scott ! I really like those 'diy or buy' videos. Could you make more of them ?
another good one Scott, always a pleasure.
Awsome Video Dear Scott!
Please do digital amplifier || DIY or Buy
GreatScott! I hope one day you will make a video ( not a project ) but a video on how you succeeded in electronics. Electronics is so tough but you can make it somehow easier for someone to learn.
Interestingly, I'm doing a mix of DIY and BUY with my mic. Few months ago I bought a Neewer NW-700 mic kit (comes with a mic, phatnom power supply, XLR cable, XLR-phono cable, boom arm, and pop filters all in a USD$60 kit), but I completely forgot that analogue condenser mics produce signals only a hundred or two millivolts strong.
So I'm intermittently (when I can motivate myself) DIYing a pre-amplifier to boost the mic's output for recording. And mostly using jellybean components. The op amp I'm using is the LM324 quad op amp, with two utilized for the left/right channels of the mic output, and a third acting as just a voltage follower to buffer the 2.5V DC offset for the other op amps. I'm at the point where I just need to breadboard it and test it out to make sure that it works like it should. :)
The DIY version can definitely sound better with shielding. ( I think )😂
Or with a different capsule and an enclosure.
Does it sound any different going into a quality USB ADC?
I agree with your. To do a fair comparison, a quality USB AD is needed.
True ;)
Actually, your PC also uses an ADC, sound card or on board audio, they both use an ADC
The problem is that he is comparing a commercial capacitive mic with built in ADC with a capacitive mic connected to mic input. To be fair he would use an external usb ADC chip in conjunction with the electret mic in the comparison.
Using built-in ADC has one disadvantage, the audio is polluted with noises from the power supply, external for example USB ADC regulate the voltage and you'll get lot less notice from it 😉
Loved the details in the explanation!
Thank you. What a great lecture and great explanation.
I know this question is 6yrs late😅 but why didn't you use a positive and negative 5volt for the op amp. I'm trying to learn how to use op amps so forgive the noob question 😅. 6:50
Can you please make DIY or BUY episode on RC transmitter and receiver ?
u should buy one they are cheap
Another great video. nice, fun little project. I can think of lots of applications for a mini mic/ amp combo, especially married to a nice FM transmitter. Your Circuit Schematic drawings are professional, Your handwriting is professional and legible, instead of "pretending your a doctor."
the videos flo smoothly from point to point, with a keen focus. (not repeating the same thing over 6 different ways) The video is actually about the subject in the title, and not about everything you have experienced in life getting to this point.
I love the way you have common circuits engrained in your head, and know which ones go together.
Most of all, I like how you use your math to create, and share your steps in calculating. You just bomb it out without even thinking. I would like to achieve that level. Bad Ass.
More impressive than any athlete, movie star, politition, or singer.
If I had a choice between tickets to Meria Carrie, the world series, most any sports event, Jay Lennos Garage, Shakil Oneils Bar B Q, or a day hanging out in your lab. I'd be on my way to your place. You have a really good voice and manner of speaking as well.
I really enjoy your videos, a lot is put into them.
Thanks. Very Much.
Great video , I recorded the clip at the end then applied some eq and a tiny bit of reverb and it sounded almost identical to the professional mic , not bad for what it was.
I would like to see a video on shift registers. Never fully understood how they worked or what purpose they served.
I put it on my to do list
They convert serial to parallel and vice versa. Like a hard drive, SATA, will spew bits serially and it uses a shift register to load up 8 bits or 32 bits or whatever. Likewise you have a 32 bit word and you want to write it to disk, you have to serialize it, so you shift it out one bit at a time, presto parallel to serial. Smart LED strips are like a shift register, you load the colors serially and then see them all at once (parallel). That might be a fun project, 3 wires (clock, data, ground) to a shift register and 8 outputs to LEDs so you have your own smart display.
Sean Brennan So how could you use it on a serial LCD? I saw a video of someone use a shift register to reduce the number of wires from 12 to 5 going into an arduino without explaining what it did, or even what wires go where.
He probably had a parallel LCD, which wants 8 bit commands. Instead of using 8 data lines, he used 2, one to clock in data, one for the data itself. So he would clock in 8 bits to make a byte, then tell the LCD to execute the command. Nowadays you don't really need parallel devices and can go straight to I2C and use libraries. The other lines were probably ground and enable or some such.
Sean Brennan OK thanks for your help.
*Can I get the Schematic for this Project, Please*
It's on the video
Thanks for a great DIY project. The microphone delivers good audio for its price.
GEAT SCOTT! Another great great scott video!
Is it because of the high pass filter?
the same feeling from my side, just a different eq , perhaps already build in the factory mic circuit to boost some frequencies
I think you are right, and i think cut off at 15kHz is bit too low. I mean this should be 20kHz about . For me this diy Mic sounds „low”

Love your videos dude. I've learnt so much about electronics thanks to you. Could you possibly upload a schematic for your diy microphone? I broke my Mic and can't afford a decent replacement so being able to build one for cheap would be handy. Cheers!
This is very cool, a project with a kind of practical use, made from basic filter op amp circuit
I just built it, but has a ton of noise, i had to put it inside a box to eliminate the noise
Op-amps NEVER produce faithful amplified signals. They ALWAYS distort analog signals, even if they claim to be 'designed for audio amplification', because they amplify signal at varying levels depending on their frequency. Use op-amps for low quality audio applications, single frequency applications (like RC control signal boosting), digital signal boosting at low data rates, or a few other applications they are useful for.
A higher quality audio amp used instead of an op-amp would make a huge difference. This would require a powered circuit and increase the bulk of the design, but we are talking about studio sized mics, so that is no problem. You could use a high quality IC amp made for audio or a set of JFETs with accompanying components for the audio amp section. A minor change to the circuit with minimal cost for the IC option and there are several that would work well.
There were 2 mistakes in the design that also effected the quality of the audio.
First, you need a few noise floor filters to remove inherent noise in the circuit and any light background noise. This can be done with op-amps in the correct configuration or by discrete parts. One goes between the mic and the first audio amp stage, in between any other amp stages, and one right before the output. This will do noise reduction in the entire circuit and keep the amps from raising the noise floor.
Second, your band pass filter was at the wrong frequency ranges. You used the range for the human voice's primary frequencies. This works fine for a telephone call, but it cuts off resonant frequencies that add to the sound of the human voice and music. 20 Hz to 20 kHz is the hearing range of a young, healthy adult. Mics like this can have problems picking up both very low and high frequencies, but for voice it is not really a problem. Music is a different story. A bandpass filter set to 20-20k Hz right after the noise filter at each stage and the initial would be the best filtering solution. You do not need one on the output since the sound card has a bandpass filter built in.
There is also the consideration of what your sound card had for the sample rate on its analog to digital converter. This can make a massive difference on sound quality. The USB studio mics would have a very high and high bit-width output from theirs and would have told Windows through the USB connection to use the correct sample rate. Many sound cards built into motherboards are not of very high quality, but there also is the possibility that Windows defaulted to a low sample rate. Go into the mic properties and try turning the sample rate up.
Ideally the feedback network sets the frequency response of an op-amp. And if the signal is within the chip's capabilities it works that way. But given real world op-amp characteristics, a circuit may do very well at lower frequencies but struggle to keep up with higher frequencies. It sounds like he needs a faster op-amp for his microphone.
Google 'Unity Gain Bandwidh Product' please.
I dont see how you can reduce the noise floor by adding even more components. I think the only core problem in his circuit is the filters. It is cutting off a lot of the low end and that why it sounds like a telephone. Most likely its the electret microphones frequency response that is the issue, not the opamp. Ive used low noise opamps before (-100db noise) and they always work great. Also, the electret has to be in a decent housing to focus the audio waves
THIS IS THE LONGEST. COMMENT. EVER
The op-amp can be configured for a noise level threshold cutoff, therefore it will not have an output unless the signal level reaches a certain predefined level/frequency. Course the flip side of this is, that it can clamp certain levels/frequencies and will never sound as good as a professional mic.
It's called poor man's DIY mic :D
I would like to see a diy/buy version for synthesizers e.g. 8-bit synthesizers.

Great video. Diy or buy quadcopter : D
great video!
suggestion: diy or buy: arduino (buy e.g an arduino uno or use an atmega chip and build the "fancy stuff" like headers, regulator, ftdi chip, ... arount it yourself)
If you compare to the original Arduinos (now called Genuino here in Europe), then it's definitely a win for the DIY, since an -Arduino- Genuino UNO costs 20 € + shipping (which is very expensive, 10 € minimum to Spain). If we compare to the clones, then it's definitely a win for the buy, since they're only 4 € and free shipping. The only downside is the time they take (minimum 1 week).
Well if you're starting with a 16/32 pin DIP package all you need is power, a USB FTDI controller if you're programming it that way, and a pin breakout... Almost guaranteed that buying an arduino is cheaper, unless you're getting the super expensive ones. You can get a Pro Mini for like a dollar or two.
Julian Ilett has actually done a video like that: ruclips.net/video/sNIMCdVOHOM/видео.html
I like ur enthusiasm for electronics
Great video.
Scott, try the electret mic into the fancy wind muffler assembly
of the expensive microphone,
and check out if there is any difference. Cheers.
Nice video, but Why you do not use your own diy soldering station for soldering the electronic components?
he does use it sometimes
He dont want to brake it
I would like to see DIY or BUY wall adapter. May be 12 V 2A or similar
Mahesh Bhat I'd have to say buy unless you can salvage a transformer. You can get wall adapters pretty darn cheap but a transformer alone would be more expensive since manufacturers can buy them in bulk whereas DIYers don't. Wall adapters are simple though. Just a transformer, full bridge rectifier, and voltage regulator
Buy would be much cheaper
now that is a disgrase who make adapters its really wise to use readly available ones
Nicksperiments Yeah they aren't super complicated but you forgot one very important reason to buy over diy, any half decent pre-made adapter usually has a number of safety features, such as class x/y capacitors, isolation slots, opto isolators, etc... All things you can implement yourself of course but it adds to an already more expensive project which might be less safe than a cheap chinese adapter off ebay.
Nicksperiments did anyone say... FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER?
Very interesting videos your “make or buy” series 👍🏻
wow, I already like this series!!!

How about a Diy or Buy Episode on bright 18650 powered flashlights with an Output of 350-1000 Lumens?
Makersteve YT possibly buy as making a flashlight that powerful could pose challenges
Some Guy Not really. These Led-Chips are very common nowadays having a light output of roughly 100 Lumens per Watt. To build such a Flahlight, you really just need a boost converter with constant current feature, which he already build, and a charging/protection board for multiple cells in series. These are also not really expensive to get. Apart from that, there is basically just a housing + heatsink + swich needed.
Please do a motor driver DIY or buy. Great video by the way, I really like your content!
Thank u so much man! Cuz of u I made a mic preamp and it almost costs 1$ and it sounds good enough for normal use 🙂
Diy or buy a drone
Buy
diy
Absolutely diy... Buy a cheap one to learn then build a 250 because you will be rebuilding it at some point. DJI and the like are a huge rip off.
Diy for sure. Diy is the way they've always been done (pretty much the entire rc aircraft industry has been diy for decades). The models that have become mainstream have become mainstream due to marketing and ease of entry, but are not superior to their diy counterparts. Anyone comfortable with diy should diy. On a side note, they also make an excellent father-son project, i remember building my first diy rc helicopter with my father 13 years ago and honestly, it was one of my best experiences with him. Just enough challenge to make you think, but not enough to be frustrating.
Shaun Husain so youre telling me that a well known brand such as DJI is a scam? Please elaborate as if memory serves you cant get a motion controlled drone that works without paying much of a premium. Would like to hear your thoughts on that
