Sure thing. A high‑end condenser mic or a laser vibrometer can pick up the tiny micro‑vibrations in oak grain, but only if you’re in a very quiet, isolated environment. Your audio gear needs a low‑noise preamp, high‑resolution ADC, and a proper acoustic treatment to really hear those subtle shifts. If you want the absolute fidelity, consider a vibration sensor or a scanning laser vibrometer instead of just a regular studio mic.
