Geofón DIY kit is a kit version of Geofón, a sensitive omnidirectional geophone adapted for field recording. Originally designed for seismic measurements, it captures very faint vibrations in various materials and even soil with standard field recording equipment. It sounds best on metallic objects, large structures, trees and ice. The kit uses the same geophone element as the assembled Geofón.

⚠ Neodymium magnets may cause interference with credit cards (magnetic stripes), cardiac pacemakers and ICDs.
⚠ Due to the nature of the geophone sensor, you may pick up electromagnetic interference in specific urban areas and other places with strong electromagnetic fields.
