[sdiy] NEWBIE REQUEST; PIEZOS

[Toby Paddock]

Yep, I'm probably worrying too much. Walking across the carpet and 
plugging in a mic would be nastier than the 30V pulse I measured.

And you mentioned a high pitched sound. Could that be from the 
resonant frequency of the piezo itself? Mine have a pretty high Q 
resonance if they aren't mounted on something.

Is that possible? Doesn't the signal simply clip, after it hits a certain
level? Certainly, routing a lightning bolt into your mic in would probably
fry it, but a lightning bolt is far beyond anything that can eb produced
in a (nromal ) studio.
