what's the difference between a simple microphone and a active microphone

Professional series microphones require power for them to work.

Inexpensive microphones do not need power. The microphone sends the audio signal to a device such as an amplifier, tape deck, digital recorder, mixer, and other devices.

 

Here is a DVR microphone that requires 12 volts dc to operate.

It has a built in audio microphone, easy top or bottom mount as well as a removable sun shield. The ICR IR150 comes with a SONY 1/3 inch high resolution sensor that provides 480 lines of resolution. It comes with a 3.6mm (optional 4mm, 8mm, 12mm) fixed lens

 

Be prepared to get arrested if you are not familiar with recording laws. You will soon be educated more then you wish.

 

I can stick a cam corder with no audio up the bottom of a dressing room wall, and it is only a misdemeanor, and the cop will ROR me (release on own recognizance).
