The History and Development of microphones

The decade 1930 saw the film industry to test the new technology to record musical scores. However, the range of microphones offered was low. He entered the MGM Studios, in Culver City, CA, to test the newly invented microphone cardioid made by the Siemens Co, Germany. It is used to make "Naughty Marietta" with the likes Jeanette McDonald and Nelson Eddy.

Dynamic or condenser microphones were much smaller in size than the version of Siemens in the microphone cardioid. There was a constant effort to reduce the size of the microphones for ease of use.

James Cannon of Cannon Electric Co. in Los Angeles, CA, he said creating a connector for the microphone. Its creation was 6-pin connector that later became the prototype of the P-type connector A, which proved a instant success. 3 conductor cable connector of the camera was then put to Cannon plug into history after 1929.

Mason Marshall Bell Labs did a shot of a tubular microphone in 1939. The design was such that it uses a single element and acoustic tubes of different sizes. Helped in the truck music direction. The tubular design was the forerunner of today's micros.
