Audix OM2S Professional Hypercardioid Vocal Microphone With Switch

The OM2 is designed with a tight and uniformly controlled hypercardioid polar pattern which helps to isolate the vocals from the rest of the instruments on stage. With a wide frequency range of 50 Hz - 16 kHz, the OM2 employs a VLM™(Very Low Mass) diaphragm for natural sound with exceptional transient response. The OM2 is constructed a with slight bass proximity and a tailored mid-range, giving it a full bodied sound on small to mid-size PA systems without compromising performance on larger systems. The OM2 is well balanced, comfortable to hold, durable, and designed with high standards and tight tolerances. The OM2 is manufactured with a precision die cast zinc alloy body, durable black E-coat finish, dent resistant steel mesh grill and gold plated XLR connector. USER TIPS The OM2 has a very tight pick-up pattern in order to help eliminate sound from other instruments on stage from “bleeding” into the microphone. For best results, it is important to sing directly into the mic at close proximity (within 2 inches). When using floor monitors, position the microphone so that it is parallel to the floor. When using multiple microphones on a live performance stage, allow a distance of 2-3 feet between mics to avoid phase issues Applications Lead or backing vocals Live recording Broadcast Home studio - vocal and instrument Sax, brass, guitar, dobro, flute, percussion, drums Features All purpose professional vocal mic for live sound, rehearsal rooms, & home studio Warm, full sound with slight bass proximity optimized for small to mid-size PA systems Provides excellent isolation on stage for outstanding feedback rejection while allowing the vocal to cut through the mix Handles high SPLs without distortion VLM Capsule Designed, assembled & tested in the USA 5 year warranty Specifications Transducer Type Pre-Polarized Condenser Frequency Response 40 Hz - 20 kHz Polar Pattern Hypercardioid Output Impedance 250 ohms Sensitivity 5.6 mV / Pa @ 1k Equivalent Noise Level 24 dB Signal to Noise Ratio 70 dB Maximum SPL =140 dB Power Requirements 9 - 52 V phantom Connector 3-pin mini to 3-pin XLRm (APS910) Polarity Positive pressure on diaphragm produces positive voltage on pin 2 relative to pin 3 Materials / Finish Machined Brass Capsule / Black Finish Gooseneck Flexible Steel Product Weight 47 g / 1.6 oz Product Length 30 mm / 1.14 in
