Glossary
| Cable length |
| The cable length is usually measured between the anti-kink sleeves of the cable (cable length without connectors). |
| Frequency response |
| The frequency response of a microphone is given within the limits defined by the manufacturer. In studio condenser microphones it is generally within the range of between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. |

| Impedance |
| Impedance expresses the AC resistance of a microphone or a set of headphones. It is dependent on frequency and is given at 1 kHz as the so-called nominal impedance. Impedance is measured in ohms. In recent years, an industrial standard has developed, setting the impedance of headphones at 50 or 600 ohms. Sennheiser headphones are manufactured according to this standard, thus practically ruling out connection problems. With microphones, the input impedance of the following microphone amplifier should have at least three times the value of the nominal impedance, in order to prevent it from unnecessarily attenuating the microphone signal. |

| Pick-up pattern |
| Also known as polar pattern, directivity. According to their acoustic design, microphones differ in their sensitivity towards sound from different directions. Pressure microphones have a sensitivity that is largely independent of direction (omni-directional pick-up pattern). Pressure gradient microphones have the pick-up patterns wide cardioid, cardioid, super-cardioid or figure-of-eight. Interference microphones can be used to achieve a further concentration of the pick-up pattern (lobar pick-up pattern). As a special case, dummy head microphones achieve the pick-up pattern of the human ear/head (dummy head stereo). |
| Sound pressure level (SPL) |
| Due to the impractical numerical values, the sound pressure is usually given as the logarithmic value of the sound pressure level according to the equation: dB SPL = 20 x log (po / 0.00002 Pa). The abbreviation SPL (sound pressure level) is added in order to make a clear distinction from other uses of dB. The reference sound pressure, which is at the same time the threshold of hearing, is then 0 dB SPL. The threshold of pain is 140 dB SPL. A difference in the sound pressure level of 1 dB is just about perceptible, while a doubling of the sound pressure corresponds to 6 dB and a doubling of the volume corresponds to a rise of 10 dB.
