Week 2 Forum - Input and Output


I found this weeks soldering frustrating. My lack of patience is not a good mix for what we needed to do. My soldering necklace will be going on eBay in a couple of weeks. You can get in early for a special price of $5!

Incase you didn't know what soldering was. . .



This weeks exercise was to solder a piezo microphone onto some wire and then solder the other side to a TS connector (jack). The hardest part was stripping the wire plastic cover off the piezo wires. This is because they were so tiny and I kept snipping the wire. Also the wires connected to the actual piezo mic were very fragile and I had to resolder them back on a few times.[2]




My piezo. . .



I ended up plugging the piezo straight into my laptop input and recording the sounds into my computer.


Piezo Recordings
Piezo Sound 1
Piezo Sound 2
Piezo Sound 3

These were recorded on the dining room table. . .




Recording my piezo into Logic. . .
