Microphones

All about Microphones. SHORT recap of the article below. Microphones DO NOT grab sound and bring it in. There is no such thing as distance or range with a microphone. It only hears what is coming to it. Therefore the more noise you don't want to hear the closer it needs to be to the source. HUGE difference in Omnidirectional v Unidirectional BECAUSE it's either deaf or not to the side noise. http://www.proacousticsusa....
