OM SERIES

The OM Series capsules are designed to maximize gain before feedback on stage. The

hypercardioid pickup pattern of the microphones are designed to reject sound from

instruments on stage. For best results, sing within a few inches of the microphone.

SETTING OUTPUT LEVEL

Choice of 10 Milliwatt or 30 Milliwatt RF transmission levels (pg 14).

VX5

The VX5 condenser microphone has a more open supercardioid pickup pattern. The

extended on-axis reach is ideal for singer/songwriters, keyboard players and vocalists who

want more freedom to work the microphone from a distance.

INTERCHANGEABLE CAPSULES

It is very easy to change a capsule assembly. Simply unscrew the capsule assembly at the

ring above the Audix logo.

Hint: Do not unscrew the grill ball as it is a separate threaded piece intended to be

removed separately from the capsule housing.

CONTROLLING DISTORTION

Audix capsules are designed to handle very high sound pressure levels without distortion.

If distortion is detected, try to minimize or eliminate it from the mixing console by turning

down the trim and gain controls. If distortion persists, there is a gain setting at the capsule.

First remove the capsule assembly. Locate the dip switch on the green PCB inside the

housing. Use a miniature screwdriver to move the switch from 0 dB to -6 or -12.
