Sometimes the resultant electromagnetic feedback can be at such a high frequency...it may not be audible even to folks with good hearing. But...the potential...
Hi Norman Agreed, except that there are dynamic microphones available with a so called "hum bucking coil". Such microphones are designed to work near the...
Thanks, Norman and David. It looks to me like all electromagnetic microphones would need to be used with care (except for the ones with the humbucking coil),...
