What are Condenser-Microphones and why are they called like this?

Condensor mics are also often what people think of when they think of studio mics. They are the best quality mics out there but generally not good live performance mics. Condensor mics are prone to feedback, often have to be isolated from vibrations and are a bit expensive for most people to take out for a live performance. \n\nI am not sure exactly why they are called such but I suspect it is because they have a built in amplifier thus "condensing" the sound. Most other mic types take the raw vibrations and just pass them along. This is why condensor mics will give you more range than other mics as they actually amplify the input.

Another way that may work is go into your control panel, then into sound options, From there mute your microphone. It will still work but you will not hear what's going in and probably not the buzz.

two possibilities either built in speakers in the monitor or a built in microphone. look closeley at the plug on the cord if it has 3 sections its  speakers  if 2 then its a mic cord

I had to take a few of mine to a local recording studio...most of them have the technology to do it! Good luck!

On the back of your computer find what looks like three headphone plug ins.  One will have a picture of a microphone plug it in there.

It is an inbuilt feature in Windows Operating Systems.  Go to Start Menu/Programs/Accessories/Entertainment/Sound Recorder.  It is there.\n\nIf it doesn't meet your need, search for voice recording software. I found an excellent list on the website below:\n\nhttp://www.freedownloadmanager.org/downloads/voice_recorder_software/

Advantage: Can be mounted to the desk or monitor in the form of a Boom or Gooseneck. Microphones that utilize the bias power from the sound card do not need an external or battery power supply which is an advantage if you are trying to use one with an older model laptop.\nDisadvantage: Is typically a condenser microphone requiring an external DC power source. The sound quality is lower

You would be looking for a program, I don't believe a mic can do that. A high quality mic would get rid of backround noise and things of that nature. Any audio program should do what you are asking for. Try some of the popular ones like Fruity Loops, Reason, Acid Pro, etc.

Advanced Signal Processing ... I think it's a "type" of card rather than a manufacturer. Most likely a Sound Blaster made by Creative.

Well, the easiest way is to buy a microphone designed for use on a computer.  There are a lot of them available, and they normally start at about $5 and go up.\n\nThese microphones are all low-power condensor type of microphones.  They have about the same quality as the microphones built into a tape recorder.\n\nIf you want to go up a step higher, then you need a bit more equipment.  A Mixer Board (like a DJ uses) lets you plug in higher quality microphones.  They are more complex to get up and running, but if you want high quality, it is the best way to go.  I do this, and have a $250 Shure studio mic hooked up to my computer.

try turning up the recording volume on ur pc...just click the speaker icon in the sys tray, bottom right hand corner of taskbar, and check the volume for recording is turned up\n\nPS...It may be called "Line In", or "Mic"

Some of these may sound stupid and you may have tried them. It is, however, good to go through the basics all over again.\n-Check if the microphone jack is inserted in the correct socket. There is a colour code (usually pink for microphones) which is followed by all manufacturers.\n-Check if the sound software (accompanied with the mainboard drivers) has an option to configure the microphone. It has a feature which can detect if microphone is transmitting any signals to the computer.\n-If you can't find it, double click the sound icon in your taskbar and go to recording section in advanced controls. Check if the microphone is selected (default) as the recording device and the either the microphone or the master is in mute position.\n-Check the microphone on a system on which any other microphone is functional.

Sounds like a techie place or something.

While Using Internet , the technology used is packet switching, while making use of a normal phone be it mobile or landline the technology used is circuit switching. In the packet switching the data is transmited in an asynchronous manner and a paricular data rate is not maintained. This is the reason voice breaks up while using a microphone

Like that of a intercome system. Your voice is amplified and sent down the signal wire (Tip - old technology). The common wire (Ring).

Or you can make a dynamic mike with a strip of tinfoil suspended between the poles of a strong magnet; only puts out a few millivolts so needs lots of amplification.  Or use the old telephone mike technique, a bunch of carbon particles pressed lightly together in an insulating case with metal end caps; this behaves like a variable resistance so you need to connect it to a DC source and amplify the voltage changes across it.  Or you could get really ambitious and make a condenser mike; but this one's extra tricky to implement since you need two parallel metal plates, one rigid and the other foil; bias them with a high voltage from a high impedance source, amplify the output.
