Strange recording at riverside with 2 piezoelectric microphones connected on a tree, 15 meter from the water. A ship is passing. An unexpected result of the experiment with the piezo's.
I bought some 5cm piezo elements. Connected them to a 10 m long stereo-cord that i have split so I can put the piezos 4 m from each other. Whatever I hear I like the result is anyway. I hope you do to.
Tips (WARNING):
1] Do never experiment with a cord like this during an unstable day. So even if you think it could be thundering 20 km away, your equipment could be electrocuted by a faraway lightning!! This cord is a great antenna and that's a serious risk.
2] Never hit a piezo to hard, the effective voltage can rise easy op to more than 5 volts AC on by serious hit. Your input of your recorder does not survive that!!. So first connect the piezo to the surface you will record on and than connect the plug in your recorder. Start recording at level ZERO.
