Detailed explanation-1: -A microphone is a device that translates sound vibrations in the air into electronic signals and scribes them to a recording medium or over a loudspeaker. Microphones enable many types of audio recording devices for purposes including communications of many kinds, as well as music vocals, speech and sound recording.
Detailed explanation-2: -A microphone converts sound waves to audio signals, which are then converted to digital audio data and sent/inputted into a computer. Microphones typically output analog audio signals (AC voltages) that require conversion to digital data to be compatible with a computer.
