Microphone On/Off Switch Circuit is Pop Free - This circuit uses a simple technique to eliminate the usual “pop” sound when an electret type microphone is switched on or off. The circuit is completely passive and will work on dynamic and electret type microphones . . . Hobby Circuit designed by Dave Johnson P.E.-February, 2002
Microphone phantom power supply - This is a very simple design for a phantom supply. This design will work with microphones that have no problem with the phantom supply being only 15V. It also has to be noted that, at high SPL, distortion can become intolerable (totally depending on microphone design). In that case, the phantom supply voltage has to be increased. __ NewLine
Microphone Polarity Tester - Many things can go wrong in a modern recording studio, but few are as difficult to track down as reversed microphone polarity. When a microphone is placed in front of a sound source, a positive pressure on its diaphragm caused by forward-moving air results in a positive voltage on one of its output pins and a negative voltage on the other. But which pin is positive? These days most microphones have XLR output connectors, with Pin 2 used for the positive voltage output and Pin 3 for the negative. But you can't always count on this, especially if the microphone is an older model, or was ever repaired or otherwise rewired. __ Designed by Ethan Winer

Microphone PreAmplifier - This is a simple microphone preamplifier circuit which you can use between your microphone and stereo amplifier. This circuit amplifier microphone suitable for use with normal home stereo amplifier line/CD/aux/tape inputs. This microphone preamplifier can take both dynamic and electret microphone inputs (preamplifier provides power foe electret microphone elements). The idea of this circuit is to keep the design as simple as possible __ Designed by Tomi Engdahl
Microphone Preamplifier - A low noise pre-amplifier suitable for amplifying dynamic microphones with 200 to 600 ohm output impedance. __ Designed by Andy Collison
Microphone Test Oscillator - This unit would be mounted in a small plastic or preferably metal box, with a 9V battery, level control, a male XLR connector (same as on a mic) and a switch. Current drain is low, since the circuit only uses one dual opamp. There is no need for a high quality device, and a 1458 (or 4558 which is somewhat better but still cheap) is all that is needed __ Designed by Rod Elliott ESP
Microphone Tester - This circuits is handy for finding an intermittent short or open in a microphone cord or switch. It produces a week tone in the microphone so that you can flex the cord and operate the switch to find faults. It won't find an open shield or a short from __ Designed by Andrew R. Morris
Microphone to Neck Loop Coupler for Hearing Aids - Hearing-aid wearers often have difficulty understanding conversations in noisy environments, especially if they have switched their personal hearing aid from microphone mode to T-coil mode. This projects solves that problem. __ SiliconChip
Microphone uses "phantom power" - 08/30/01 EDN-Design Ideas The electret microphone capsule is similar to those commonly used in telephones, cassette recorders, and computers. The element functions as a capacitor with a fixed trapped charge. Sound pressure moves a diaphragm, producing variations in the capacitance. This action produces an ac-output voltage with an extremely high source impedance Design by Bruce Trump, Texas Instruments, Tucson, AZ

MIDI Keyboard - Build a PIC based DIY midi keyboard for under $30 and by using free VSTs (virtual instruments) you get a powerful music creation system
MIDI Pedalboard encoder & background information - Almost any commercial electronic keyboard today will provide a MIDI output, which is useful for connecting it to other instruments including some pipe organs. However MIDI pedalboards are much rarer, which among other things makes it difficult to put together a simple home practice facility. Therefore this article shows how the appropriate MIDI signals can be generated from the closure or opening of a simple key contact. Full details are included for a MIDI encoder suitable for a standard 30 or 32 note pedalboard; the encoder uses only a handful of standard integrated circuits, thus removing the need to program microprocessors or read-only memories for which few have the knowledge or facilities. __ Designed by Colin Pykett
MIDI Tester - Sometimes when experimenting with different soundcards and MIDI interfaces it is useful to see if there is some data going in MIDI interface. This can be easily tested with this adapter, which converts the midi signals to visible light pulses. Just the circuit and plug it to the MIDI output of your computer. When computer sends any midi data out, you see the LED flashing. I found this tester very useful in testing homebuilt soundcard MIDI interface. __ Designed by Tomi Engdahl
Mike Muter for Singing Guitarists - The average musical Do-It-Yourselfer starts building guitar effects by making a distortion pedal of some sort. It's a good introduction to musical electronics, and pretty simple as well, since getting a circuit NOT to be linear has never been hard. But there comes a time when you have to stop thrashing the strings in your bedroom, get up on stage and *play*. When you get to there, you run into all kinds of little problems that you never encountered back in your room. __ Designed by R.G. Keen
