Introduced as a new feature for Minecraft 1.20, Calibrated Sculk Sensors filter vibrations under a specified frequency. This, coupled with the ability of Amethyst blocks to re-emit frequencies as separate vibrations has created a method of creating long-range transmissions and frequencies in Minecraft. Here’s how to craft a Calibrated Skult Sensor in Minecraft.
Crafting a Calibrated Skulk Sensor in Minecraft
According to the snapshot details, A Skulk Sensor can be crafted using one Skulk Sensor and three Amethyst Shards at the Crafting table. The Skulk Sensor must be placed in the middle of the crafting grid, with one Amethyst Shard above, to the left side, and to the right side. The full recipe is below:
- 1 x Skulk Sensor
- 3 x Amethyst Shard
Initially, this was just snapshot information, which is effectively beta content. Luckily the recipe made it unchanged into the main game

What are Calibrated Skulk Sensors for?
Calibrated Skulk Sensors allow you to filter vibrations based on their frequency level. In Minecraft patch 1.20, there are now 15 types of frequency of vibration. Vibrations can also be transmitted by Amethyst blocks, and then those Vibrations are read by Skulk Sensors.
This could already be used to send signals between Skulk Sensors. However, with the Calibrated Skulk Sensors, you can now filter based on a specific frequency. So, for example, you could set a Calibrated Skulk Sensor to only activate when a block is destroyed, or a cauldron water level rises, or something like that.
This gives the potential for a lot of new interactions, such as transmitting redstone signals via vibrations and other interesting ideas we’ll have to discover in Minecraft 1.20!
