Re: CALL for WATER SOUNDS




How about sticking a contact(piezo) mic to the side of the
tank?

I just started experimenting with a disassembled Radio Shack
piezo electric buzzer, and it was childishly easy to turn it 
into a microphone.  Don't know yet how the fidelity will be.

The procedure is:

-Buy piezo electric buzzer.
-Rip plastic shell off, being careful to not bend the piezo
element.
-Replace soldered-on wires with shielded audio cable.
-Add jack to other end of cable.

Yours in rhythm,
Steve
