If you go with your microphone very close to a loud sound source, the acoustic sound is converted into high audio voltage. To prevent a too high voltage at the input of the pre-amplifier and to get no distortions there, it s good to damp this voltage by 10 dB. That is why you find sometimes a 10 dB pad switch at better condenser microphones. That pad is made by some resistors making a voltage divider. Scroll down to related links and look at "Calculations: voltage divider (potentiometer) - damping pad".
What else can I help you with?
What microphone has the highest decibels?
This question needs to be clarified before it can be answered. A microphone cannot "have" decibels. Perhaps you mean: What microphone can record the highest frequencies? or What microphone can effectively record the highest decibel sounds without distortion?
How do you get the microphone to work for Guitar hero?
It's simple! All you need is to have a microphone and a control pad both connected to the console!
On the decibel scale an increase of 10 decibels means an intensity increase of times?
10 decibels increase mean measured on a sound pressure level meter. SPL meter. Forget the intensity, because the ear drums and the microphone diaphragms are moved by the sound pressure. 10
How much louder is a 60 decibel sound than a 40 decibel sound?
A 60 decibel sound is 10 times louder than a 40 decibel sound. Decibels follow a logarithmic scale, where an increase of 10 decibels represents a sound that is perceived as being 10 times more intense.
How does a decibel reader detect decibels?
A SPL meter is a sound pressure level meter where a microphone diaphragm is moved by the sound pressure variations and the voltage output of the microphone is shown at a voltmeter. The volts are calibrated to decibels.
How is the intensity of sound measure?
You take a measuring microphone with a sound pressure level meter.
How does intensity of a 40 decibel sound compare to intensity if a 20 decibel sound?
The intensity of a 40 decibel sound is 10 times greater than that of a 20 decibel sound. This is because the decibel scale is logarithmic, with each 10 decibel increase representing a 10-fold increase in intensity. Therefore, a sound that is 40 decibels is 10 times more intense than a sound that is 20 decibels.
When a sounds intensity increases by a factor of 10 its decibel reading increases by what?
When a sound's intensity increases by a factor of 10, its decibel reading increases by approximately 10 decibels. This is because the decibel scale is logarithmic, with each 10-fold increase in intensity equating to a 10 dB increase in perceived loudness.
When a sound intensity increases by factor of 10 it's decibel reading increases by blank?
Decibel Scale [Apex] (: its 10 honey
How do you setup a chat pad for your xbox 360?
There is a chat pad that can connect to the microphone port on the controller or you can just use a usb keyboard (doesnt matter if its wired or wireless)
What unit sound is measured in?
Decibel (dB) * The Bel is the primary unit. However, the scale is too large. So for human hearing, we use the deciBel, where each deciBel is 1/10 of a Bel. this is abbreviated dB.
How do the amplitudes of a 120-decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?
-- A difference of 20 dB means the louder one is delivering 100 times as much power as the softer one is. -- The power delivered by any sinusoidal phenomenon is usually proportional to the square of the amplitude. So the amplitudes would have to be in the ratio of 10 to 1. The louder one has 10 times the amplitude of the softer one.
