The Audix OM5 is a handheld hypercardioid dynamic microphone optimized for reproduction of vocals, speech, horns, guitars, and drums in live sound, studio sessions, and broadcast applications. It boasts low handling noise and a hypercardioid polar pattern, which is effective in minimizing residual ambience and feedback caused by nearby monitors and speakers. The dynamic element's low-mass diaphragm responds quickly to transients and handles sound pressure levels up to 144 dB.
It produces a frequency response of 48 Hz to 19 kHz with a dip at 120 Hz, a mild rise in the low-mid frequencies, and a wide presence boost. The gold-plated XLR 3-pin output ensures compatibility with most microphone preamps and mixer inputs, and the zinc alloy body with a dent-resistant steel mesh grille provides road-ready protection and durability. The OM5 was designed, assembled, and tested in the USA, and ships with a microphone clip and carrying pouch..Ideal for vocals, speech, horns, guitars, flute, percussion, and drums
Hypercardioid polar pattern provides off-axis rejection of over 30 dB and high gain before feedback
48 Hz to 19 kHz frequency response with attenuation at 120 Hz to reduce boominess, a mild rise in the low-mid frequencies for added body, and a presence boost for high-end clarity
VLM Type C capsule delivers great transient response
High maximum SPL of 144 dB easily handles vocals, drums, and amplified instruments
Rugged zinc alloy casing with a dent-resistant steel mesh grille
