Audix D6 Professional Dynamic Instrument Microphone
Audix D6 Professional Dynamic Instrument Microphone. The D6 dynamic instrument microphone is used for stage, studio, and broadcast applications. Designed with a cardioid pickup pattern for isolation and feedback control, the D6 drum microphone is equipped with a VLM™ diaphragm for natural, accurate sound reproduction.
Lightweight, compact, and easy to position, the D6 cardioid microphone is an excellent choice for miking instruments requiring extended low-frequency reproduction such as kick drums, large toms, and bass cabinets. The D6’s transformerless design, low impedance, and balanced output allow for interference-free performance.
Designed, machined, assembled, and tested by Audix in the USA.
The Audix D6 is a professional dynamic instrument microphone specifically designed for capturing the low-frequency sound of instruments such as kick drums, bass cabinets, and other low-frequency instruments. Here are some key features and information about the Audix D6 dynamic microphone:
1. Dynamic Microphone: The Audix D6 is a dynamic microphone, which means it generates an electrical signal through electromagnetic induction when sound waves move its diaphragm. Dynamic microphones are known for their durability and ability to handle high sound pressure levels.
2. Cardioid Polar Pattern: The D6 utilizes a cardioid polar pattern, which is particularly suitable for instrument miking. The cardioid pattern captures sound primarily from the front of the microphone while attenuating off-axis sounds, reducing the pickup of unwanted ambient noise and bleed from other instruments.
3. Enhanced Low-Frequency Response: The microphone is optimized for capturing low-frequency instruments with precision and impact. It has a tailored frequency response that emphasizes the deep bass and sub-bass frequencies, resulting in a full and powerful sound reproduction.
4. VLM (Very Low Mass) Diaphragm: The D6 features Audix’s VLM diaphragm technology, which provides a fast transient response and accurate reproduction of low-frequency sounds. This technology ensures that the microphone captures the subtle nuances and details of the instrument’s low-frequency performance.
5. Built-In Integrated Mounting System: The microphone is equipped with a built-in mounting system that allows for easy and secure attachment to microphone stands or drum mounting systems. This feature ensures stability during performances and recording sessions.
6. Durable Construction: The D6 is constructed with a rugged metal body and a reinforced grille, providing durability and protection against accidental impacts and handling. It is designed to withstand the demands of live performances and studio use.
The Audix D6 dynamic microphone is a popular choice for capturing the deep and powerful sound of low-frequency instruments. Its tailored frequency response, cardioid polar pattern, and robust construction make it suitable for professional audio engineers, drummers, and bassists who seek a reliable microphone for capturing the fullness and impact of their instruments.
