I am a real amatuer at this. Phantom Power is? A power supply to
power the mike remotely, thus providing the power to drive the audio
signal?
I guess I need a MICROPHONES FOR DUMMIES book. I know all about how
the signal gets processed after the acquistion end. I just do not
know acoustic acquisition science 9or the practical engineering of it
all) very well.
I assume that PZM means Piezoelectric Microphone?
