What's the difference between microphone and microphonics?

Microphone


Definition:

  • (n.) An instrument for intensifying and making audible very feeble sounds. It produces its effects by the changes of intensity in an electric current, occasioned by the variations in the contact resistance of conducting bodies, especially of imperfect conductors, under the action of acoustic vibrations.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) "I pulled the microphone in front of my seat, not a knife.
  • (2) I’ve warned Dave before to mind his ps and qs when the cameras are rolling, but the problem is you can never tell when the microphones are switched on.
  • (3) The effects of auditory fatigue, using a temporary threshold shift (TTS) paradigm, on cochlear microphonics (CM) and on auditory brainstem-evoked potentials (ABEP), were studied in normal-hearing subjects during the development of permanent threshold shift (PTS).
  • (4) The microphonic potentials of liverdamage animals was lower about 3.4 dB than potentials of healthy animals.
  • (5) It consisted of a conventional precordial or esophageal probe connected to a microphone by a rubber adapter.
  • (6) It's possible that it upsets her to think about the past, or perhaps, these days, she saves her animation for the times when she is holding a microphone and standing in front of a swollen, angry crowd.
  • (7) The couple projected a united front, standing side by side at a microphone bank and watching attentively as the other spoke.
  • (8) Controlled acoustic stimuli were presented by sealed systems incorporating probe microphone assemblies.
  • (9) They propose a double blind test in order to attempt to demonstrate objectively the reasons which experimentally and in the Laboratory decide the choice of a hearing aid with a directional microphone or an omni-directional microphone.
  • (10) Josiane Nzuki, 15, raised her hand, took the microphone, and asked the organisers of Sunday’s peace concert in Goma, featuring Akon and Jude Law, why they thought the Congolese city was the best place to hold it.
  • (11) The variability of functional-gain measures is discussed in relation to measures of insertion gain obtained with probe-tube microphones.
  • (12) That is not what we heard in response.” Activists with Black Lives Matter have disrupted Democratic campaign events before, most recently when presidential candidate Bernie Sanders ceded the microphone to protests in Seattle before eventually walking off the stage.
  • (13) Each experiment included sound pressure level measurements to define the input signal, cochlear microphonic (CM) measurements to monitor the cochlear condition, interferometric measurements and histological evaluation of the cochleas.
  • (14) The response of stethoscopes and chest microphones depends on the impedance of the sound source, which must therefore have the same impedance as the body, and must emit a signal related to the sound intensity in the body when no instrument is applied.
  • (15) Taking the microphone from the presenter, Hayley McQueen, the 63-year-old said: “I want to say something.
  • (16) I was so angry I took the microphone and said, "Remember this name: David Bowie.
  • (17) The use of "self-wiring," windscreens, and remote microphone technology make it possible for hearing impaired persons to enjoy communication in one-to-one situations; small and large groups; large listening areas; and settings such as television listening, communicating in an automobile, and counseling with medical, educational, vocational, and spiritual advisers.
  • (18) Localization was always poorer at 30 degrees azimuth (the smallest used) than at any of the other azimuths (0 degree, 30 degrees, 60 degrees, 90 degrees right and left), regardless of microphone spacing.
  • (19) It has already been shown that the FFR in normal subjects to tone bursts with single onset phases is made up of a short latency cochlear microphonic potential (CM) and a longer latency neural component (neural FFR).
  • (20) The breathing sounds were recorded with the small transistor warp type microphone inserted through the nasal orifice into the trachea, main bronchi and segmental bronchi, and were analyzed with sound analyzer.

Microphonics


Definition:

  • (n.) The science which treats of the means of increasing the intensity of low or weak sounds, or of the microphone.
