This is a recording I made using a piezo transducer, or contact mic, in direct contact with a wooden train whistle toy. As the pickup is in direct contact with the wood, this recording is acoustically dead, so you can apply your own environment or effects. The contact mic was hooked up directly to my Zoom h4 recorder.
