Thanks for clarification and sorry that I misinterpreted your aim!

You are right for loud Signals. But bird songs/calls tend to be faint signals far away. And for this, you would want the highest sensitivity and highest SNR. And, believe it or not, the AOM5024 and EM272 do really have these specs. I have used...

EVERY single BirdNET detection has to be carefully checked manually by visual inspection of the spectrogram and listening BEFORE submitting to xenocanto or ebird. Please do not implement any "automatic" batch upload possibility of unchecked...

AOM5024 is exactly the same as (PUI-Audio - AOM-5024L-HD-R) 😀

Addon: the AOM5024 and EM272 have such high sensitivity, that you do not need a preamp at all. I have tested both, with and without preamp. Just connect the electret mic to your USB sound card.

HP filtering is not necessary, the BirdNET-classifier takes the frequencies it needs and rejects unneeded. However, you will have False positives of eg. Great Bittern etc. caused by traffic noise an airtraffic. But you can put those bird species...

If you want to capture all migrating birds from all directions, I would suggest using one single electret mic, eg. AOM5024 or EM272. The ICS43434 are MUCH noisier and -even more important- much more sensitive to moisture and rain. So, with the...

@Cuble1998 I think you are a bot, do you agree? If not, please be much more specific in your recommendation

Yes. Why not try it by yourself? It worked for me. If you are too shy, try something like 100 Ohm instead.

AFAIK, the figures cannot be compared. Mic SNR is the difference between the mic noise and the max sound level over the total audio bandwidth and finally A-weighted. SNR in the Echometer touch datasheet is given in db/sqrt(Hz) for a given...

I have successfully used the ICS43434 and Teensy 3.6 with simple cables of about 8cm, see here: https://github.com/WMXZ-EU/microSoundRecorder/wiki/Hardware-setup
