Quote: Due to my innate laziness, I am unable to pick up the microphone right now. Perhaps I'll send you a file when I actually manage to. Thanks, that would be nice. Quote: And by the way, a speaker is an output device. You cannot use it as an input device to record sounds. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudspeaker for more information. As I know the physical basics (Electromagnetic induction) and as I actually did this with my loudspeakers I know it works (The quallity is very bad, but I think I said this)! (Of course you have to change the "port" where you plug it in your computer ) Quote from wikipedia: The dynamic principle is exactly the same as in a loudspeaker, only reversed.[...] A crystal microphone uses the phenomenon of piezoelectricity—the ability of some materials to produce a voltage when subjected to pressure—to convert vibrations into an electrical signal. An example of this is Rochelle salt (potassium sodium tartrate), which is a piezoelectric crystal that works as a transducer, both as a microphone and as a slimline loudspeaker component. [...] A loudspeaker, a transducer that turns an electrical signal into sound waves, is the functional opposite of a microphone. Since a conventional speaker is constructed much like a dynamic microphone (with a diaphragm, coil and magnet), speakers can actually work "in reverse" as microphones. |

But that wouldn't work on a laptop. There's no port. |

I think there is, it's just the microphone input port |

Ah, if you are talking about inbuilt speakers, that's something different then, unless you open your laptop and reprogram the circuitboards I was talking about normal speakers, as was moose, with cables and stuff |
