There are numerous ways to record paranormal voices, so-called evp’s. I use the Psychophone, especially designed for this purpose by Franz Seidl, an EVP-pioneer. You can find instructions how to build the Psychophone on my website. | ||||
How to use the Psychophone. I built the Psychophone using the diagram that was published in his book. But I took the liberty to apply some modifications, or rather: I added some components. The Psychophone integrates several electronic devices e.g. an oscillator ( a small radio transmitter) that generates energy/carrier waves for trancedental voices to modulate. Secondly a radio-receiver for the reception of electromagnetic waves that may be influenced by the voices. Furthermore there is a microphone-preamp onboard to enable the use of a microphone to capture voices. The elements I added are an integrated speaker system with amplification and output. This makes it easier to search for certain frequencies without the necessity of headphones. |

Sometimes voices, addressing to those present, can be heard directly from the speaker. I also added extra outputs with individual amplification to be able to connect several recording devices e.g. cassetterecorder or PC. I use two microphones with preamps that are connected to two seperate inputs on the Psychophone without causing a decrease of the radio-signal. I recommend the use of preamps for it increases the necessary sensibility to pick up the usually faint voices. |

There are two inputs for an
antenna and I’ve built in a large DC-meter that indicates the quality of
reception. I use a mobile scanner antenna and a wire antenna with a spool
in the middle to create the idea of a longwire antenna in a small room.
