Well now I kind of want to mic up a kick drum with my gaming mouse for fun lol

That requires a mouse with an 8kHz polling rate. With a 1kHz polling rate, this trick will be limited to sounds under 500Hz.

I wonder if it would sound better taped on, in the drum itself, or on the floor in front. Seems like there would be minimal bleed too haha, might be a cool lo-fi thing

Huh you know from a music perspective I know we can get a lot higher than 500hz but most speech is apparently around 1-300hz.

I only speak in infrasound…

And probably only works when configured to use the the highest DPI settings.

Cool, cool. So what hertz range would you say a woman moaning or a particularly loud fart fall around ? Just out of curiosity…

Human speech is between about 130-300Hz, so even with a lower poling rate it can pick it up. And assuming she sound like a mosquito, it’ll pick things up.

I doubt it, 300Hz is very low. The lowest fidelity frequently band used in telephony is comprised between 300Hz and 3400Hz, specifically excluding everything below 300Hz (voice frequently)
