Audix OM3 Dynamic Vocal Microphone

The OM3 is a hypercardioid dynamic handheld that extends the top end to 18 kHz for a more open, detailed vocal than an entry-level mic. Its VLM diaphragm reacts quickly to keep sibilance and articulation intact, and the tight hypercardioid pattern maximizes gain before feedback on a monitor-heavy stage.

Solid e-coat construction and an internal shock mount keep handling noise down through nightly use, and it handles peaks of 144 dB SPL and higher without distortion. No phantom power is required, so it drops straight into any board channel. A step up in clarity for singers who want more air without leaving the dynamic-mic durability behind.
