The microphone is an acoustic-to-electric transducer that converts sound into an electrical signal. Microphones are used for many applications such as telephones, motion picture production, live and recorded audio engineering, radio and television broadcasting, and many other applications. There are many different types of microphones suited for various applications and scenarios. We have assembled a knowledgeable panel to discuss mics.

Mike Weber will familiarize us with different types of analog microphones, patterns, and how to read the specifications.

Henry Cohen will discuss wireless microphones, frequency coordination, and white space issues.

David Shinn will talk about using mics and which application is correct for the type of mic.

Q&A will follow.

This meeting will be a discussion of technology and technique, not a sales presentation.

All interested parties are welcome.
