INPUT TRANSDUCERS In a sound system, input transducers convert sound into audio signals. The types of input transducers most commonly encountered in sound reinforcement systems are: A)Air pressure or velocity microphones-convert sound waves traveling in the mic cable. B)Contact Pickups-converts found waves in a dense medium(wood, metal, skin) into an audio signal. Sometimes used on acoustic stringed instruments such as guitar, mandolin, violin, etc. Usually of the crystal type, occasionally capacitive. C)Magnetic Pickups-convert fluctuating waves of induced magnetism into an audio signal. Found on electric stringed instrument
