Abstract
A dynamic microphone includes a vibration pickup that detects vibration of a dynamic microphone unit, and outputs a signal for cancelling vibration noise; and a microphone case that supports the microphone unit and the vibration pickup, wherein the vibration pickup includes a laminated ceramic piezoelectric element that detects vibration of a microphone unit case and outputs a signal corresponding to the detected vibration, the laminated ceramic piezoelectric element has a capacitance that defines a resonance circuit in conjunction with an inductance of an inductor, the resonance circuit producing a response signal to acceleration corresponding to that of the vibration noise, and the resonance circuit is connected such that the response signal is output in an opposite direction to the vibration noise signal.
