You don't have time to buy a microphone for the PC? You can simply build it ! The time taken can be higher than buy one, but the satisfaction to say "I made this with my hands"..

You only must have a microphonic capsule and an audio cable, mono or stereo.

The microphone is a little device, with a capacitor that change this capacitance in according to the sound waves that encounter it. It is similar than these:

You only have to connect the microphone to the main part of the JACK MONO connector, in the top, and to the GROUND part.

With this, the output of the microphone must be connected with part 1 of the connector, and the ground of the microphone must be connected with part 2.

If you are only a stereo connector, you have to connect the top part of connector at the microphone output, and the mic ground to the other two parts of the stereo connector.

In this case, the output of the microphone must be connected with part 1 of the connector, and the ground of the microphone must be connected with part 2 and part 3.
