S.OB Kontakt.HIS1 / Contact Microphone Magnetic / Waterproof Piezo Pickup

Magnetic Piezo Contact Microphone

A handmade passive magnetic piezo contact microphone designed for experimental music, live performance, sound design, field recording, and sound exploration.

The microphone is encased in durable NBR rubber, making it water-resistant and suitable for demanding creative environments.

A built-in magnet allows the microphone to be quickly attached to metal surfaces, making it easy to capture vibrations and hidden sounds from objects, instruments, machines, and structures.

Explore the hidden sonic world inside objects. With this contact microphone, almost any surface can become a musical instrument.

Features

• Mono piezo contact microphone
• Magnetic mount for metal surfaces
• Durable NBR rubber housing
• Water-resistant
• Ideal for experimental music, field recording, sound design, and sound exploration

Note

For better amplification and a fuller sound, it is recommended to use a preamp or Hi-Z (JFET) input.

Perfect for musicians, sound artists, field recordists, and sonic explorers looking to discover unique textures, vibrations, and hidden sounds.
