| | Microphone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | For this reason, a microphone is an acoustic wave to voltage modulation transducer. |  | | Electret microphones have existed since the 1920s but were considered impractical, but they have now become the most common type of all, used in many applications from high-quality recording and lavalier use to built-in microphones in small sound recording devices and telephones. |  | | Contact microphones have been used to pick up the sound of a snail's heartbeat and the footsteps of ants. |

 | | This is one of the factors of the microphone mystique discussed later. |  | | The angle between the microphones is critical, depending on the actual pickup pattern of the microphone. |  | | The practical range of distance between the instrument and the microphone is determined by the point where the sound overloads the microphone or console at the near end, and the point where ambient noise becomes objectionable at the far end. |

| | Microphone Technique |
 | | The antenna of the FM microphone (a wire extending below a lavellier FM microphone/transmitter, or the cord connecting a lapel microphone with the transmitter) is not for nervous hands to twiddle; these motions create noises in the ears of the listener. |  | | The most important principle in using an FM microphone in a classroom is for the user to ensure that it is switched on when the recipient is supposed to hear the utterance and tumed off when the message is not intended for the FM user (either individually or as a member of the class). |  | | It should be noted that when using an FM microphone, the distance from the talker to the receiver has a negligible effect upon the loudness of the speech received by a child (within the range of the FM transmitter). |

 | | Condenser microphones - A condenser microphone is essentially a capacitor, with one plate of the capacitor moving in response to sound waves. |  | | Ribbon microphones - In a ribbon microphone, a thin ribbon is suspended in a magnetic field. |  | | In a dynamic microphone, the diaphragm moves either a magnet or a coil when sound waves hit the diaphragm, and the movement creates a small current. |

 | | There is a big leap in quality between a $50 microphone and a $150 microphone, and perhaps again between the latter and a $500 microphone. |  | | Some microphones are specialized to specific kinds of recording: they are designed to capture only very loud or very soft sounds; they are intended to work in close proximity or at a distance; they capture ambiance well, or filter out peripheral sounds. |  | | A microphone (pair) can easily cost two or three times as much as a recorder. |

 | | The most common microphones for musical use are dynamic, ribbon, or condenser microphones. |  | | Principle: the air movement associated with the sound moves the metallic ribbon in the magnetic field, generating an imaging voltage between the ends of the ribbon which is proportional to the velocity of the ribbon - characterized as a "velocity" microphone. |  | | Microphones are transducers which detect sound signals and produce an electrical image of the sound, i.e., they produce a voltage or a current which is proportional to the sound signal. |
