Original Note:
Only some rare forms of tinnitus can be heard by a microphone, and this has been well known to medical science for over 30 years. It's called objective tinnitus, as opposed to subjective tinnitus, which is the more common form and is indeed idiopathic (only in the brain). https://www.medlink.com/articles/objective-tinnitus#:~:text=Objective%20tinnitus%20is%20much%20less,idiopathic%20and%20is%20seldom%20curable. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2273894/
