MICROPHONE

17PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

an acoustic to electric Transducer or sensor that converts sound

into an electrical signal

sometimes colloquially called a mic or mike

Page 18: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

MICROPHONE

18PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Microphones are used in many applications such as

telephones, tape recorders, hearing aids, motion pictures production, live and recorded

audio engineering, in radio and television broadcasting and in computers for recording voice,

VoIP, and for non-acoustic purposes such as ultrasonic

checking

Page 19: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

VARIETIES of MICROPHONE

19PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The sensitive transducer element of a microphone is called its element or capsule

A complete microphone also includes a housing, some means of bringing the signal from the element to other equipment, and often an electronic circuit

to adapt the output of the capsule to the equipment being driven

CONDENSER, CAPACITOR OR ELECTROSTATIC MICROPHONE

21PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The diaphragm acts as one plate of

a capacitor, and the vibrations

produce changes in the distance

between the plates

Page 22: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CONDENSER, CAPACITOR OR ELECTROSTATIC MICROPHONE

22PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

There are two methods of extracting an audio output from the transducer thus formed: - DC-biased - radio frequency (RF) or high frequency (HF) condenser microphones

Page 23: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CONDENSER, CAPACITOR OR ELECTROSTATIC MICROPHONE

23PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Condenser microphones span the range from telephone transmitters to inexpensive karaoke microphones to high-fidelity

recording microphones

They generally produce a high-quality audio signal and are now the popular

choice in laboratory and studio recording applications

They require a power source, provided either from microphone inputs as phantom

power or from a small battery

Page 24: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CONDENSER, CAPACITOR OR ELECTROSTATIC MICROPHONE

24PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Condenser microphones

are also available with

two diaphragms, the signals from which

can be electrically connected such as to provide a

range of polar patterns

Page 25: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

ELECTRET CONDENSER MICROPHONE

25PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

An electret microphone is a relatively new type of capacitor microphone invented at Bell Laboratories in 1962 by Gerhard Sessler and Jim West

The externally-applied charge described above under condenser microphones is replaced by a permanent charge in an electret material

Page 26: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

DYNAMIC MICROPHONE

26PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

This, coupled with their potentially high gain before feedback makes them ideal for on-stage use

Dynamic microphones work via electromagnetic induction

They are robust, relatively inexpensive and resistant to moisture

Page 27: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

DYNAMIC MICROPHONE

27PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Moving coil microphone, use the same dynamic principle as in a loudspeaker, only reversed

A small movable induction coil, positioned in the magnetic field of a permanent magnet, is attached to the diaphragm

Page 28: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

RIBBON MICROPHONE

28PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Ribbon microphones use a thin, usually corrugated metal ribbon suspended in a magnetic field.

The ribbon is electrically connected to the microphone's output, and its vibration within the magnetic field generates the electrical signal

Page 29: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

RIBBON MICROPHONE

29PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Ribbon microphones are similar to moving coil microphones in the sense that both produce sound by means of magnetic induction. Basic ribbon microphones detect sound in a bidirectional (also called figure-eight) pattern because the ribbon, which is open to sound both front and back, responds to the pressure gradient rather than the sound pressure

Page 30: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CARBON MICROPHONE

30PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

A carbon microphone is a capsule containing carbon granules pressed between two metal platesA voltage is applied across the metal plates, causing a small current to flow through the carbon

Page 31: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CARBON MICROPHONE

31PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Unlike other microphone types, the carbon microphone can also be used as a type of amplifier, using a small amount of sound energy to produce a larger amount of electrical energyCarbon microphones found use as early telephone repeaters, making long distance phone calls possible in the era before vacuum tubes

Page 32: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

PIEZOELECTRIC MICROPHONE

32PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

A crystal microphone uses the phenomenon of piezoelectricity — the ability of some materials to produce a voltage when subjected to pressure — to convert vibrations into an electrical signal

Crystal microphones were once commonly supplied with vacuum tube (valve) equipment, such as domestic tape recorders

PIEZOELECTRIC MICROPHONE

33PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Piezoelectric transducers are often used as contact microphones to amplify sound from acoustic musical instruments, to sense drum hits, for triggering electronic samples, and to record sound in challenging environments, such as underwater under high pressure

Page 34: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

FIBER OPTICAL MICROPHONE

34PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The fiber optical microphone is an entirely new microphone concept, first invented in Israel in 1984 by Drs. Alexander Paritsky and Alexander Kots

Page 35: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

FIBER OPTICAL MICROPHONE

35PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Conversion of acoustical waves into electrical signals is achieved not by sensing changes in capacitance or magnetic fields (as with conventional microphones), but instead by sensing changes in light intensity

Page 36: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

FIBER OPTICAL MICROPHONE

36PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The fiber optical microphone has very specific advantages over conventional microphones

No electronic or metal components are used in the microphone head or the connecting fibers

LASER MICROPHONE

37PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Laser microphones are often portrayed in movies as spy gadgets

A laser beam is aimed at the surface of a window or other plane surface that is affected by sound

The former implementation is a tabletop experiment; the latter requires an extremely stable laser and precise optics

?

Page 38: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

LIQUID MICROPHONE

38PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

Early microphones did not produce intelligible speech, until Alexander Graham Bell made improvements including a variable resistance microphone/transmitter

A sound wave caused the diaphragm to move, forcing a needle to move up and down in the water

?The electrical resistance between the wire and the cup was then inversely proportional to the size of the water meniscus around the submerged needle

Page 39: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

MEMS MICROPHONE

39PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The MEMS (Micro Electrical-Mechanical System) microphone is also called a microphone chip or silicon microphone

The pressure-sensitive diaphragm is etched directly into a silicon chip by MEMS techniques, and is usually accompanied with integrated preamplifierMost MEMS microphones are variants of the condenser microphone designOften MEMS microphones have built in analog-to-digital converter (ADC) circuits on the same CMOS chip making the chip a digital microphone and so more readily integrated with modern digital products

Page 40: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

SPEAKERS AS MICROPHONES

40PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

A loudspeaker, a transducer that turns an electrical signal into sound waves, is the functional opposite of a microphone

speakers can actually work "in reverse" as microphones

The result, though, is a microphone with poor quality, limited frequency response (particularly at the high end), and poor sensitivity

In practical use, speakers are sometimes used as microphones in such applications as intercoms or walkie-talkies, where high quality and sensitivity are not needed

Page 41: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CAPSULE DESIGN AND DIRECTIVITY

41PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The inner elements of a microphone are the primary source of differences in directivity

A pressure microphone uses a diaphragm between a fixed internal volume of air and the environment, and responds uniformly to pressure from all directions, so it is said to be unidirectional

A pressure-gradient microphone uses a diaphragm which is at least partially open on both sides; the pressure difference between the two sides produces its directional characteristics

OMNIDIRECTIONAL

45PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

An omnidirectional (or nondirectional) microphone's response is generally considered to be a perfect sphere in three dimensions

The wavelength of sound at 10 kHz is little over an inch (3.4 cm) so the smallest measuring microphones are often 1/4" (6 mm) in diameter, which practically eliminates directionality even up to the highest frequencies.

Page 46: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

UNIDIRECTIONAL

46PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

An unidirectional microphone is sensitive to sounds from only one direction

The sound intensity for a particular frequency is plotted for angles radial from 0 to 360°

The microphone faces upwards in each diagram

Page 47: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

CARDIOIDS

47PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM

The most common unidirectional microphone is a cardioids microphone, so named because the sensitivity pattern is heart-shaped

A cardioids microphone is effectively a superposition of an omnidirectional and a figure-8 microphone; for sound waves coming from the back, the negative signal from the figure-8 cancels the positive signal from the omnidirectional element, whereas for sound waves coming from the front, the two add to each other.

Page 77: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM 77

EQUALIZER

A parametric equalizer uses independent parameters for Q, center frequency, and boost/cut

PARAMETRIC EQUALIZERS

Any range of frequencies can be selected and then processed

This is the most powerful EQ because it allows control over all three variables

This EQ is predominantly used in recording and mixing

Page 78: IDENTIFY THE SOUND SYSTEM 1PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM.

PLANNING THE SOUND SYSTEM 78

EQUALIZER

A graphic equalizer uses predetermined Q and frequency ranges which are equally spaced according to the musical intervals, such as the octave (12-band graphic EQ) or one third of an octave (36-band graphic EQ)

GRAPHIC EQUALIZERS

These frequency ranges can then be independently boosted or cut

This type of EQ is often used for live applications, such as concerts
