Condenser
- They are based on an electrically charged diaphragm assembly which forms a sound sensitive capacitor.
- The sound waves vibrate the diaphragm which is mounted in front of the rigid metal back plate.
- They are more costly than dynamic mics.
- They are used especially for recording in studios,
as it captures sounds in more detail.
- It provides a smoother more natural sound, especially at high frequencies.
- Also comes in small sizes without significant loss of performance.

Dynamic

- This mic employs a diaphragm which forms a miniature sound driven electrical generator.
- Dynamic Microphones have a simple construction and economical.
- It is a common mic that's been used in any place, like concerts, events, etc.
- They can provide a good sound quality and good specifications in all microphone performance.
- Can handle high sound levels, very hard to overload.
