Descripción
Microphones that have a diaphragm constructed of metal or metal-coated plastic film, stretched before an electrode. This diaphragm is depressed by sound waves causing a change in the distance between the diaphragm and electrode, causing a voltage change that is subsequently rendered as recorded, amplified, or broadcast sound. These microphones require a separate source of electrical current to operate, unlike dynamic or ribbon microphones.
