Description

The Audix OM3 Hypercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone stands as a professional-grade tool, perfect for artists and sound engineers who demand high-quality, durable, and reliable audio capture during live performances, studio sessions, and broadcast applications. Engineered to deliver crystal-clear and accurate sound reproduction, the OM3 excels in resisting feedback and handling very high Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) without distortion, ensuring your vocals cut through the mix with precision.

Crafted with a tight and uniformly controlled hypercardioid polar pattern, the OM3 expertly isolates vocals, minimizing the pickup of sound from the sides and rear to focus solely on the performer. This directional sound capture is particularly beneficial in live environments, where the separation of instruments is crucial. The microphone's wide frequency response, ranging from 50Hz to 18kHz, is facilitated by a Very Low Mass (VLM) diaphragm, which provides a clean, natural sound with outstanding transient response, capturing every nuance of the vocal performance.

The OM3's frequency response is thoughtfully shaped, with a natural attenuation in the lower mid-bass frequencies to reduce boominess and handling noise. This design choice, coupled with an exceptionally articulate mid-range, ensures the OM3 is an excellent match for PA systems of all sizes, delivering a sound that is both powerful and refined.

In terms of build, the OM3 is well-balanced and comfortable to hold, reflecting its versatile and professional nature. Its durability is unquestionable, constructed with a precision die-cast zinc alloy body and a robust black E-coat finish. The microphone's identity is permanently marked with a laser-etched model number, and it is protected by a sturdy steel mesh grill. Connectivity is ensured with a high-quality Switchcraft or Audix XLR connector, and it comes complete with a heavy-duty nylon clip for secure mounting.

Whether you're a vocalist seeking a microphone that can faithfully reproduce your voice or a sound professional looking for a versatile and reliable tool for your audio arsenal, the Audix OM3 Hypercardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone is designed to meet the highest standards and tight tolerances demanded by the industry.
