Micro Electro Mechanical System Microphone

Microphone check 1—2—what is this?

A big-sounding microphone module in a small 1U package. Turn your voice, instruments, environmental sounds, or even wild feedback experiments into audio for your Eurorack system.

Features

• Identical features and functionality to the 3U version but in 1U format
• MEMS omni microphone with flat frequency response
• Output level can be controlled via slider and/or CV input
• When modulating with CV, the slider becomes an attenuator
• Patch and modulate two independently for stereo effects
• Activity (green) and overload (red) indicator LEDs
• Fixed low-frequency roll-of switch (180Hz, 6dB/oct)

What’s MEMS?

MEMS Microphones are constructed with a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (aka MEMS) component, placed on a printed circuit board and protected by a mechanical cover. They are extremely small, and can be found in many modern electronic devices e.g.  phones, tablets, cameras etc. Despite their compact size, they have a very flat response across a large frequency range (~ 6hz to 20kHz.) which makes them excellent for musical applications.
