Audix OM11 Dynamic Vocal Microphone
The OM11 is a much anticipated re-release of the fabled OM1 microphone that was originally available in 1985 and quickly established itself as one of the main go to microphones for rock and metal vocals.
Features
- Adds vocal presence to the mix
- Handles high SPL without distortion
- Extremely low handling noise
- Exceptional gain before feedback
- Provides excellent vocal isolation on stage
- 2-stage machined brass body
- Dent resistant steel spring grill
It was discontinued, unfortunately, because of the prohibitive costs associated with producing it. Now, 16 years later, we are proud to re-issue it with the original cutting edge sound and stylish two-stage, machined brass body. With an updated composite capsule housing and mounting system, the OM11 has very high output with extremely low handling noise.
The OM11 is characterized with an elevated mid range for sharp, crisp vocals along with a slight bass proximity to enrich the over-all sound. The mic also handles very high SPL levels without distortion, has superior off-axis rejection and supplies maximum gain before feedback. A spring steel grill and all brass construction provide rock solid durability.
The new OM11 successfully maintains the integrity of the original capsule, while taking advantage of some of the advancements of today's materials and automated production processes. Balanced, low impedance output allow for interference-free performance even with long cable runs.
