OM5
OVERVIEW:
Designed, assembled, and tested by Audix in the USA, the OM5 is
a dynamic vocal microphone used for stage, studio and broadcast
applications. The OM5 is known for its clarity, resistance to feedback
and ability to handle sound pressure levels in excess of 144 dB
without distortion.
The OM5 is characterized with an extremely 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 48 Hz - 19 kHz, the OM5 employs a VLM™ (Very Low Mass)
diaphragm for natural response, accurate sound reproduction, and
exceptional transient response.
The OM5 is naturally attenuated at 120 Hz to reduce boominess and
handling noise. The mid-range is tailored for presence allowing the
vocalist to be more easily heard in the mains as well as the monitors.
The OM5 is comfortable to hold, durable, and manufactured with high
standards and tight tolerances.
Roadworthy construction includes a precision die cast zinc alloy body,
black e-coat nish, laser etched model and serial number, steel mesh
grill, Switchcraft® XLR connector, and heavy duty nylon clip.
