« Audix I love! »
Published on 11/29/11 at 03:29Large diaphragm cardioid condenser for studio but also scne.
OVERALL OPINION
I have been a few years trs happy user of the Audix. I have in my case a D6, D2 and two i5 and all the microphones fully satisfy me!
Looking for a microphone that would IDAL for the sound of grand piano, I dvolu the SCX25 by not having heard quen overheads on a drum jazz and the view of some al colleagues who had praised the MRIT me.
I could have the choice of AKG 214 (which are cheaper), but won me over with their Audix SERIES D and I have a weakness for this brand.
So I bought two (one pair but not Stereo). A getting started dj a sign of quality mics are heavy for their size! I have first test on a battery overhead rock and jazz ... more twice the sound technician in the room came to me asking me what I used as microphones ...
Then came the test on a grand piano .. The slap! By positioning the capsule has parallle the soundboard, just open the gain and possibly engage the low cut on the one that takes more treble. In some rooms I need to dig 200-300Hz. For the rest nothing to do! a hot sounds! And I never heard a serious as warm on a piano before the acquisition!
The only sore point: it is fragile! Grids protections of the capsule are trs fine and I think they PForm the slightest shock.
There are no photo ... If I had to redo this choice, would not hsitation!
