A pressure microphone is designed to measure the sound pressure that actually exists in front of its diaphragm. This means that the microphone also measures any changes in the sound field brought about by the presence of the microphone.

A pressure microphone is used, typically, in coupler measurements and, when flush-mounted on a wall for example, for sound-pressure measurements on the surface of the wall. In such applications, the effect of the microphone's presence in the sound field is intended.
