The vibration occurs between two plates within the capacitor. On the other hand, dynamic microphones feature a larger diaphragm connected to a metal coil within a magnet.
Another notable difference between these microphone types is their power requirements. Condenser microphones require an external power source, while dynamic microphones do not. Condenser microphones are more sensitive to sound, making them ideal for capturing delicate instruments. Conversely, dynamic microphones have lower sensitivity but are more durable compared to their condenser counterparts.
Many professionals use condenser microphones in settings where high sensitivity is needed, such as studio recording. On the other hand, dynamic microphones … ...Read the rest.
