Step 2Salvage a cool mic element! (or buy a new one)
iImage Information

If you mic element is coming from an already assembled mic, you have to take that other mic apart and get the element out. This will be different for evey mic type, but you'll figure it out. Many times, dynamic mic elements will have an 'acoustic chamber' of some kind attached to them. This will be attached by a screw or a clip. Take this off. Our mic will have it's own acoustic properties, and the stock acoustic chamber will prevent our mic from having it's own character. Plus, this will make the element too long to fit in the shell. :)
