Microphone in Windows 10
After installing Windows 10, the microphone can be disabled. If this happens, there are a few things you can troubleshoot before going out and buying an external or internal sound card.

Carbon Microphone

-Carbon dust is used in the earliest and most basic microphones. The original telephones were made using this technique, and some telephones still do. On one side, the carbon dust has a thin metal or plastic diaphragm. The carbon dust is compressed by the sound waves that strike the diaphragm, altering its resistance. The quantity of current that flows depends on the resistance, which is altered by passing a current through the carbon. Because higher line voltages could result in explosions, they are nonetheless utilized in the mining and chemical production industries.

Liquid Microphone
Liquid microphones, invented by Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Watson, were among the first working microphones to be developed, and they were a precursor to what would later become the condenser microphone. Early liquid microphones used a metal cup filled with water and sulfuric acid. A diaphragm was placed over the cup with a needle on the receiving side of the diaphragm. Sound waves would cause the needle to move in the water. A small electrical current ran to the needle, which was modulated by sound vibrations. The liquid microphone was never a particularly functional device, but it makes a great science experiment

Condenser Mics

Condenser microphones are the rich, frilly cousins of dynamics.

They’re more complicated than their dynamic counterparts, so they’re more fragile and expensive (though they have gotten much, much cheaper than they were in the past).

Ribbon Mics

Ribbon mics are the black sheep of the family.

These microphones were very popular in the 50’s and 60’s, before dynamic and condenser mics came onto the scene.

As such, they’re very fragile and very expensive.

These are the most sensitive mics around, so they’re meant to be used on softer sounds, like voice or strings.

Ribbon mics are also always bidirectional. So they’re better used in a room that is well treated to lower the amount of room sound that is captured.

Dynamic Microphone

A dynamic microphone takes advantage of electromagnet effects. When a magnet moves past a wire (or coil of wire), the magnet induces current to flow in the wire. In a dynamic microphone, the diaphragm moves either a magnet or a coil when sound waves hit the diaphragm, and the movement creates a small current. This type is best placed close to a vocalist or instrument and doesn't typically pick up sound from more than a foot away.

Fiber Optic Microphone

Unlike other microphones that operate by sensing variations in magnetic fields or capacitance, a fiber-optic mic senses alterations in light intensity to transform acoustic waves into electrical signals. In this type of microphone, incident sound waves modulate the light guided in optical fibers without any external power.

These mics are used in particular applications, mostly for noise-canceling and infrasound monitoring. In hospitals, for example, fiber optic microphones allow doctors and patients to converse normally inside MRI suites and remote control rooms.

Crystal Microphone

The working of a crystal microphone is based on a phenomenon called piezoelectricity — the ability of certain solid materials to generate a voltage when subjected to mechanical stress.

This type of microphone uses piezoelectric materials to transform vibrations into electrical signals. Early mics used Rochelle salt due to its impressive output, but it was somewhat fragile and sensitive to moisture. Later devices used ceramic materials such as lead zirconate and barium titanate.

Condensor Microphone

A condenser microphone is essentially a capacitor, with one plate of the capacitor moving in response to sound waves. The movement changes the voltage of the capacitor, and these changes are amplified to create a measurable signal. Condenser microphones usually need a small battery to provide a voltage across the capacitor. Many modern consumer-grade condenser mics can also get their power from a USB connection to your PC.

Small diaphragm condenser microphones are much more common for home recording or live performances. Distinguished by their pencil-like appearance, small diaphragm mics are less sensitive than large diaphragm mics, and generally better at handling high pressure levels and wider dynamic ranges. Whilst large diaphragm mics can be considered almost as instruments by themselves, adding depth to sound, small diaphragm mics are more akin to tools that accurately record sounds as they are in real life.

In a ribbon microphone, a thin ribbon — usually aluminum, duraluminum or nanofilm — is suspended in a magnetic field. Sound waves move the ribbon, which changes the current flowing through it. Ribbon microphones are bidirectional meaning they pick up sounds from both sides of the mic.
