Abstract
A bi-directional noise-cancelling microphone comprising a detector for detecting acoustical signals centrally positioned within a tubular member that has flared entries. The microphone provides a bi-polar response pattern, and effectively cancels unwanted noise incident upon the microphone at the sides of the tubular member, as well as noise above a particular frequency dictated by the length of the tubular member. By providing flared entries to the tube, the maximum peak response frequency of the microphone is extended up to 40% higher than that achieved with a similar tubular member with non-flared entries. An embodiment of the tubular bi-directional microphone with flared entries is disclosed wherein the microphone is provided with a two-stage pop filter system. The pop filter system includes a first screen covering the front entry of the microphone housing. A second screen is constructed so as to vent the first screen, thereby preventing pop signals from being produced.
