Audix OM5 Dynamic Vocal Microphone Concert Level, Professional Vocal Microphone Clear, Accurate Sound with Slight Mid-range Boost Dynamic vocal microphones are the most popular type of vocal microphone for live performances because of their durability, flexibility, pattern control and cost. Between 1986 and 1989, Audix broke new ground with the OM Series of vocal microphones with VLM™ (Very Low Mass) technology. These microphones received critical acclaim and set new performance records for clarity, SPL (Sound Pressure Level) handling and gain before feedback, particularly on stages with very high noise environments. Popular with professional performers, live sound and broadcast engineers, Audix dynamic vocal microphones are chosen by artists such as: Alanis Morissette, Of Monsters and Men, Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, The Doobie Brothers, Ani DiFranco, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Pearl Jam, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jimmy Eat World and Alkaline Trio, to name a few. The OM5 vocal dynamic microphone is made with an extremely tight and uniformly controlled hypercardioid polar pattern which isolates the vocals from the rest of the instruments on stage or in a studio. Used on stage, in studios and for broadcast applications, the OM5 hypercardioid microphone has a reputation for clarity, resistance to feedback and ability to handle SPLs in excess of 144 dB without distortion. The OM5 dynamic vocal microphone is naturally attenuated at 120 Hz to reduce boominess and handling noise. The mid-range is tailored to provide extra presence in the vocals allowing the vocalist to be easily heard through the main speakers as well as the monitors.
