Technical Features
There are three types of polarity, or the ability for the microphone to detect sound in a given direction. Unidirectional is for a single source of sound. Bidirectional microphones allow equal detection from the sides, but not detect well from the very edges. Omnidirectional refers to general detection of sound from all around, as from an entire room at once.
