Audix OM7 Dynamic Vocal Microphone

Share

The Audix OM7 The OM7 is used by professional sound companies, front of house and mixing engineers, as well as for high profile fixed installations. The OM7 provides unprecedented gain before feedback on concert level stages without sacrificing sound quality. In addition, the mic is very resistant to feedback on extremely loud stages and for performers who tend to "cup" the microphone with both hands.

In order to achieve these extraordinary performance benefits, the OM7 is designed with an unconventionally low output level (8-10 dB lower than typical dynamic microphones). This low output level acts as a natural "pad" at the capsule in order to maintain high fidelity at the source. The OM7 is best suited for use with high quality mixing consoles which have plenty of head room to compensate for the low gain.

The OM7 is characterized with a super-tight hypercardioid polar pattern which effectively isolates the vocals from the rest of the instruments on stage. With a wide frequency range of 48 Hz - 19 kHz, the OM7 employs a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) diaphragm for a very clean and punchy sound with exceptional transient response.

Well balanced, comfortable to hold and durable, the OM7 is manufactured with very high standards and tight tolerances. The OM7 comes manufactured in a precision die cast zinc alloy body, black E-coat finish, laser-etched model and serial number, steel mesh grill, Switchcraft® or Audix XLR connector. It comes packaged with a heavy duty nylon microphone clip and carrying pouch.
