Topic: i need to record a vibrator

[brmc69]

hi all,
here's a fun one, and i'm dead serious: i need to record a vibrator (sex toy).   

i'll be using my beloved microtrak II with a sony ecm ms907 mic. i don't know why, but i'm imagining i should record it from below, with the vibrator suspended so as not to pick up vibrations from a table or anything i'd set it on. it's one of those bullet-type vibes that's on the end of a long wire that connects to to the power source and controls (the vibrator, not the microphone!). should i rig up some sort of cone around the bullet like a megaphone, to amplify the sound, or maybe around the mic to capture the sound waves? any help would be greatly appreciated. tasteful, board-friendly joking around is cool (and expected...), but i actually am serious about this. thanks in advance!

cheers,
brmc69

Ok I'll be the first to take a "shot" A-put in ass(no extra vibration), B- hit record

I gotta ask

Why???

In all seriousness I recommend a trick that the original sound eng on Star Wars used.  Stick the vibrator on a solid surface, next put a cooking pot/kettle over the vibrator with a wedge under one side.  Either under or next to the wedge place your microphone and hit record.   

For several vehicle sounds they did something very similar but instead of using a vibrator they used an electric razor.   Recorded the vibrations from the razor in the pot/kettle and then either sped up the track or slowed it down to get the speeder sounds.

should i rig up some sort of cone around the bullet like a megaphone,

That right there conjures up all kinds of possibilities and images.

i have a real nice multi-speed vibe that i'm going to use as rhythm tracks in a song i'm writing.

@ofotd: thanks for that one!

A single omni mic. Should work at a distance of about 1 foot. In a very quiet room... I think that would produce the best quality sound 

[Neilyboy]

I have no idea what it would do but possibly suspend it in some sort of can (coffee can) held in between your legs. Have your mic on a stand aiming into the can. Haha I really don't know that would be one you would have to experiment with a bit i guess. Let us know what works best for ya. Good luck with the self pleasuring..

I mean in all honesty, I usually only work with black double dong dildo's. OP, if youre not talking about said "flavor" of vibe, contact Jim (atleast6characters), and have him ask his mom. I KNOW shell have the answer.
