    Computer microphones are used for recording and storing voice or music in computers in various formats like wave files and mp3 formats. The normal type of microphones cannot be used, as they need special connectors to use in computers.

    Not all computers come with built-in microphones. Recordings in the computers are done using record pads. Wave pads enable editing and modifying the data recorded in the record pads.

    Nowadays, computer manufacturers provide built-in microphones. Many companies are well known for the manufacturing of computer microphones. There are many companies like Sony, Motorola, Jabra, Planatronics, and Jenson that offer these computer microphones.

    Executive summary about Computer Microphone by Sunil Tanna


    Attaching a microphone to your computer can be both useful and lots of fun - and it could even save you money. You can also use your microphone to record sounds (and your voice) and play them back via your computer

    Microphones can be wireless, or hardwired directly into your PC. Good quality wireless microphones produce perfectly acceptable results, but they can be more expensive than hardwired microphones.

    Microphones usually connect into the microphone jack in your sound card. If you have an old sound card, it might time to think about upgrading to a new sound card.

    Most audio software includes a calibration feature which allows you to adjust the recording levels depending on your microphone and the volume of sound.

    If you want best results, it is very important that you position the microphone correctly. If necessary, try experimenting with different microphone positions.
