<p>Hello,</p> <p>I don't own a hydrophone yet so I can't try this out myself. Out of curiosity, I was just wondering if you can use a hydrophone like a contact mic? As far as I understand it both types of mic are essentially similar. So yes the question is: does a hydrophone also work when it's not submerged in water, if you'd strap it to any vibration producing source, would it record 'sound' the same way as a contact mic does.</p> <p>Thanks! Daan</p>

<p>So, this is kind of an embarrassing question as it alway seems to raise eyebrows.</p> <p>I'm looking at trying out some underwater recording and I'm looking to find out your recommendations as to which condoms are best for covering the microphone. There are many different types, thicknesses etc, so which ones are best? Is strawberry flavored better than banana? just kidding! I'd also like to know what you have used to clean the mic afterwards?</p> <p>I'm going to use a Sennheiser E845 (similar to an SM58, I actually prefer it to a 58!) and see what sounds I get.</p> <p>Thanks in advance for your help.</p>

<p>Who has risked their microphone investment and have it pay off?</p> <ul> <li>Submerged in boiling water</li> <li>Frozen in ice</li> <li>Dipped in liquids other than water, ie. syrup, molasses, oil, etc</li> <li>Floated close to hazardous objects, ie. garbage disposal blades, propellors, etc</li> <li>Something else even crazier than the above?</li> </ul>

<p>Hey Folks,</p> <p>I have to record a variety of underwater movement and I'm in the process of doing some experimentation. I currently own 2 dolphin ear pros, but I'm not totally happy. I'm wondering if anyone can share their experiences and maybe share what sort of movement is most useful.</p> <p>I have access to a pool and a lake.</p> <p>Best,<br> Michael Raphael<br> <a href="http://rabbitearsaudio.com" rel="nofollow">http://rabbitearsaudio.com</a><br> <a href="http://sepulchra.com/blog/" rel="nofollow">http://sepulchra.com/blog/</a></p>
