Digesting...

As i told, I have zero knowledge in field recording, with DIY stuff that would much save my cost on the equipments. I checked some sites about DIY on making recordings of their own. From these readings, I came across too many new terms that i hardly can remember and for each i need to check out the dictionary and still i don't really get it. T.T


These are some sites I've read.

Brief about hydrophones:

"Most hydrophones are based on a piezoelectric transducer that generates electricity when subjected to a pressure change. Such piezoelectric materials, or transducers can convert a sound signal into an electrical signal since sound is a pressure wave in fluids." from wikipedia.
