Dynamic Microphones Versus Condenser Microphones
Posted by Simon Forrester on
What is the difference between a dynamic and condenser microphone Dynamic microphones are unpowered or passive microphones that use electromagnetic force to convert sound pressure ie: your voice into electrical signals. Going back to your GCSE physics; the laws of electromagnetism dictate that force induced on a magnet via a metal coil such as copper creates an electrical signal. This is how we generate electricity in power stations everyday. But on a much smaller scale a dynamic microphone converts tiny sound pressures (eg: from your voice) via a moving diaphragm into a matching electrical signal. These simple devices are...
