Microphones are used in many applications such as telephones, hearing aids, public address systems for concert halls and public events, motion picture production, live and recorded audio engineering, sound recording, two-way radios, megaphones, radio and television broadcasting, and in computers for recording voice, speech recognition, VoIP, and for non-acoustic purposes such as ultrasonic sensors or knock sensor.

A ribbon microphone, also known as a ribbon velocity microphone, is a type of microphone that uses a thin aluminium, duralinium or nanofilm of electrically conductive ribbon placed between the poles of a magnet to produce a voltage by electromagnetic induction. Ribbon microphones are typically bidirectional, meaning that they pick up sounds equally well from either side of the microphone.

While dynamic microphones are popular for stage use, due to their rugged construction, condenser microphones have always been the preferred type for studio recording.

The term “dynamic” can have a lot of meanings, especially when it comes to sound and music. In this case, however, it has little to do with “dynamic range” or a “dynamic performance". In this context, it refers the kind of electromagnetism that happens for instance inside your bicycle’s dynamo: When an electrical conductor moves in a magnetic field, an electric current is induced.

Dynamic microphones, thus, are microphones that convert sound into an electrical signal by means of electromagnetism. They fall into two categories, moving coil and ribbon microphones.
