Hello everyone
I recently purchased this microphone from AliExpress style B34
https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005...st_main.5.6d735e5bN2cE6h&gatewayAdapt=glo2fra


It has a low pressure but the sound is not that catastrophic...
Especially for 45€...
Here are photos of the interior and the capsule.






Do you think we can improve it for little money?
Capacitors, etc etc

I also have a very loud resonant noise, I was told to perhaps do an assembly "in the air" of the 1G resistors

But I don't really know what that means ;-)


Thanks to you

at that money, you would be hard pressed to not gut all of it and build a real mic into it.

Assembly is air means that the sensitive nodes are soldered/joined off the pcb floating in the air.

The link in the OP doesn't lead to the microphone shown.

Do we tell him about "dead bug" and "point-to-point" and "free form" soldering now, or later in the course? I believe "Manhattan" style is not taught until Soldering 102.
