Hey guys, I just finished a diy ribbon mic and it sounds sweet!!! Compered it to some other brands and I really like its character.
The only downside is I need to cranck up about 8-10db more then the other ribbons I compared with.
I am using a self wired transformer (I will provide with firther info about the core and wiring), 52N magnets and for now I am experiencing with 1.8-2.5u AL foil . I get an avarage number of 11-13 corrugations(maybe to little?) on a 5cm long, 0.5cm wide ribbon .
I guess I just need a clue on what should I be looking next to try and increase the output gain.
Will apreciate any help 🙂😎
