In April Notam will be hosting a workshop on contact microphones. If you are curious about alternative microphone techniques, Notam's workshop on contact microphones may be something for you. Contact microphones, or piezo microphones as they are also called, are an exciting tool with many possibilities for creative work with sound. Contact microphones can be difficult to use for beginners, and the idea behind this workshop is to give participants a simple but thorough introduction to contact microphones.
In this workshop, we will review different types of contact microphones, preamplifiers and microphone placements. We will also look at how we can expand this work with software, acoustic measurements and impulse responses. During this workshop, you will have created a working contact microphone and preamplifier, ready to use for your projects.
The goal of the workshop:
The goal of the workshop is to provide a simple and basic overview of contact microphones, so that participants can produce their own contact microphone solutions after the workshop. The course does not require any prior knowledge.
