Use headphones as a microphone on some Macs
Authored by: pwagenet on Mar 30, '06 07:48:21AM

Headphones ane microphones are actually very similar. Simply put speakers are nearly microphones in reverse. Both use a transducer for conversion between electrical signals and sound waves. Since microphones are usually single channel mono jacks the left channel of a pair of headphones plugged into a mic jack should work in any situation though not as well as an actual mic.
