The Audix i5 instrument microphone is an ideal solution for sound reinforcement and recording applications. The dynamic capsule features a cardioid polar pattern with a linear frequency response, capable of accurately reproducing signals at high sound pressure levels (SPL). The cardioid pattern effectively minimizes noise and ambiance at the off-axis sections of the capsule, reducing feedback and audio leakage caused by adjacent instruments. The i5 is ideal for capturing snare drum, percussion, guitar and bass cabinets, horns and vocals.

Tailored frequency response of 50 Hz to 16 kHz accentuates midrange and mid-high frequencies while eliminating low-frequency noise.

The i5 is designed to accurately reproduce high audio peak levels without noise and distortion.

The cardioid polar pattern attenuates signal at the sides of the capsule. The result eliminates noise and ambiance caused by speakers, monitors and adjacent instruments and vocalists.

The i5 features a zinc alloy body with a steel grille and black e-coat finish for great durability.

The mic comes complete with a mic clip and carrying pouch.
