Oktava MK-012-01 hypercardiod microphones, matched pair, calibration protocols below - two coordinate systems, each for one mic, measurements from 20Hz to 20KHz in 0° (top), 90° (center) and 180°

Oktava MK-012-01 hypercardiod microphones, matched pair, calibration protocols below - two coordinate systems, each for one mic, measurements from 20Hz to 20KHz in 0° (top), 90° (center) and 180° (bottom) phases.

How can i scan this and have values read into a text file, like
Freq Vol
20 0,00
23 0,04
...
20000 -12,2

? Is there a software for this type of thing?

Note: for actual speaker calibration I'll use omnis, of course.

  • By the way, i used to live not far from the Oktava factory. @_jayrope, if you will need it, i can help you to buy their microphones from the manufacturer, including those that are no longer in production.

    • @ivan zlax Thank you, Ivan, for the offer.

    • @ivan zlax Hey Ivan, i hope, that you are doing fine. One thing I would love to pass on to the marvellous engineers at Oktava is, that their microphone clients would benefit a lot from finding data sets/value lists of their frequency diagram on a dedicated Oktava page.
      If such lists were available upon entering a serial number into a page on their website, then customers could escape a lot of the possible errors, when doing a manual scan yourself.
      Here's an example, scanned from the lower one of the diagrams above:

  • @jrp can't think of anything short of a python script with some simple image processing code to sample the curve every X pixels. After correcting for image distortion.
