Digtizing sound
===============
Sound waves create pressure variations in the medium through which it
travel. The microphone generates a voltage proportional to the pressure.
You can consider the microphone as a pressure sensor, but working only for time
varying pressures.

**Objective**

Digitize sound signals from a microphone, and measure its frequency. Use
the Piezo buzzer or any other source of sound like a tuning fork.

**Procedure**

-  Enable CheckButton MIC and it's amplitude and frequency display. 
-  Position the buzzer facing the microphone
-  Set WG to 1000Hz, change it and watch the MIC output
-  Use a whistle instead of the buzzer
-  Press 'Fourier Transform' while singal is steady to analyze it.


The microphone output is shown in figure.

**Discussion**

The ability to capture sound and measure it's frequency leads to several experiments.
Making sound by blowing air in to one end closed tubes can be used for measuring
the velocity of sound in air.
