Crafted with care by Audix, the OM2 is a versatile dynamic vocal microphone suitable for a broad spectrum of live and studio applications. The OM2 is known for delivering clear and accurate sound reproduction, resisting feedback effectively, and handling very high Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) without introducing distortion.
The OM2 features a tight and uniformly controlled hypercardioid polar pattern. This focused pickup helps to isolate the vocals, reducing the presence of other instruments from the stage in the microphone's signal. With a wide frequency response spanning from 50 Hz to 16 kHz, the OM2 utilizes a VLM™ (Very Low Mass) diaphragm. This design choice contributes to a natural sound quality and exceptional transient response, capturing the dynamics of vocal performances.
The OM2's sonic characteristics include a subtle bass proximity effect and a carefully tailored mid-range. This combination provides a full-bodied sound, particularly beneficial on small to mid-size PA systems, while still maintaining excellent performance on larger setups. The OM2 boasts a balanced feel, comfortable handling, and a durable construction built to high standards and tight tolerances.
Constructed with a precision die-cast zinc alloy body, the OM2 features a resilient black E-coat finish, a dent-resistant steel mesh grill, and a reliable gold-plated XLR connector, ensuring lasting performance and durability.
