Collection: Microphones

Microphones are essential for live sound and recording, used in presentations, musical performances, interviews, vlogging, and more. Choosing the right microphone depends on factors like sensitivity, frequency response, directionality, and noise exclusion. Key microphone types include:

Dynamic: Durable and suitable for loud, distortion-free applications.
Condenser: Ideal for studio recording, offering detailed frequency response and sensitivity.
Ribbon: Versatile, providing clean sound and superior high-frequency response.
USB: Plug-and-play, ideal for podcasting, vocals, and digital recording.
Wireless: Convenient, allowing freedom of movement without cables.

Microphones come with different polar patterns, such as omnidirectional, cardioid, bidirectional, and unidirectional, influencing how they capture sound. For studio recording, directional mics (dynamic or condenser) isolate performers, while for video, directional models like shotgun mics improve sound quality and reduce background noise.
