Ralf's Piezo-Amp
Preparing the Piezo-disc with cable and plug

Was würde Uwe tun? Optimized values und minor changes

- 1M voltage divider and smaller cap
- diodes both to GND, limit input voltages

Stereo-Piezo Wurmophon - Dual Channel Piezo-Amp
First experiments


Working on a new design for a DIY workshop to make a dual channel Piezo-Amp optimized for minimum parts and easy to solder during a short workshop. Also changing to low power op-amp such as the MCP6002, so we can power it from a recharchable 3.7V LiPo or 5V powerbank.

Ralf's Single Channel
Our good friend Ralf (http://www.ralfschreiber.com/) has shown us his nice new workshop module for making a single channel piezo pre-amp during HOME MADE 2020.
Some discussion on how to use a linear pot that reacts logarithmically by adding / chaning one of the resistors?
