DIY 'boutique' mic with preamp
Having been quite cynical of the audio production gear industry and marketing myself, as well as having a soft spot for unlikely setups, I've found this build to be quite interesting and curious what others here think.
I have personally been searching for a (quite likely DIY) solution for a ultra portable handheld dynamic mic of reasonably neutral colouring that's has good off-axis rejection and minimum handling noise, as the central piece of my mobile music making setup. This video has got my interest going... (I'm aware the mic in the video is electret).
I also love the no-frill preamp bit. Another frustration of mine in my setup
Comments
This looks like a really interesting build.
I don't think that it would be good for handheld
performances or live performances without some
kind of software cancellation but as a studio mic?
It sounds really cool.
I had come across similar designs in regards to the capsule
and circuitry using Panasonic WM1-A's via the recordinghacks website
and other websites after needing to modify my Tandy PZM microphones
to accept phantom power.
Still, instead of doing a DIY right now you could simply get this mic.
I discovered them when doing a purchase for a client awhile back.
I was in DV247 here in London and I saw it in a display cabinet.
The price has gone up since I got it but not to much and it's worth it.
Not to much circuitry to add noise.
The diaphragm is found in many sub £200 large diaphragm condenser mics
and rolling of a little bit of the high end makes it a rather handy microphone
to have around.
I initially got mine to swap the capsule out for one of my other LDC microphones.
Here's a couple of links,

Both microphones are identical.
The one from DV247 is a rebadged version of the OEM one from Alctron.
The diaphragm itself is a K67 type
Here's a list of K67 type microphones or your perusal.

If your audio interface has phantom power you're good to go.
