Re: [microsound] flash tracker - binaural mic

[Joakim LindÃn <joakim.linden@xxxxxxxxx>]

If they use the Panasonic elements you could easily assemble a very good 
sounding pair for about $10-15 each yourself. I have put together a field 
recording stereo mic myself, very primitive though. The only thing available 
in sweden are Omni-type elements from Panasonic, which is not the best 
option for close sounds, but they have an amazing sound quality for such a 
low price. The MiniDisc player I own (Sharp MD-MT190) has a mic input so I 
can plug them in directly to that without any amplification since MD's 
always supply power through their mic inputs.
When recording I can easily get a good response up to 20khz, the only 
problem is the ATRAC encoder on my old MD - it messes with the high 
frequencies.

www.digikey.com is supposed to have a few of these elements left. There are 
others coming that are supposed to replace the Panasonic ones, since they 
where recently discontinued. I found this:

Someone else probably knows more about where to get other capsules in the 
US.
