Audix OM11, Dynamic OM1 Reissue Microphone
The OM1, a hand-made microphone first introduced in 1985, quickly
established itself with live sound engineers as one of the best
mics for rock and roll. It was discontinued,unfortunately,because
of the prohibitive costs associated with producing it. Now, 16
years later, we are proud to re-issue it with the original
cutting edge sound and stylish two-stage, machined brass body.
With an updated composite capsule housing and mounting system,
the OM-1 has very high output with extremely low handling noise.
The OM11 is characterized with an elevated mid range for
sharp, crisp vocals along with a slight bass proximity to enrich
the over-all sound. The mic also handles very high SPL levels
without distortion, has superior off-axis rejection and supplies
maximum gain before feedback. A spring steel grill and all brass
construction provide rock solid durability.
The new OM11 successfully maintains the integrity of the
original capsule, while taking advantage of some of the
advancements of today's materials and automated production
processes. Balanced, low impedance output allow for
interference-free performance even with long cable runs.
