Where does ποΈ Studio Microphone emoji come from?
The studio microphone emoji first came out in 2014 under Unicode 7.0, 4 years after similar emoji, such as the microphone and radio, debuted.
On most platforms, including Appleβs, the studio microphone emoji shows a classic tabletop or mounted microphone associated with old-time radio, the Shure Unidyne 55.
Twitter and Googleβs design evokes another icon of audio yore, the RCA 77 ribbon mic.
While not as widely used as the microphone emoji, the studio microphone emoji, when not busy marking broadcasting content, does get used for singing and vocal performances.
