About Audix
Audix builds microphones in Oregon with a focus on high SPL handling and consistent performance under pressure. Founded in 1984, the company earned its reputation in live sound, particularly for close-miking drums and amplifiers where feedback rejection and transient response matter most. Their condenser and dynamic mics use proprietary capsule designs that prioritize clarity and gain-before-feedback. The D6 kick drum mic and i5 snare/guitar cab mic are studio and stage standards. Audix also manufactures wireless systems, headphones, and a full line of mic accessories, all engineered with the same attention to durability and sonic accuracy.
Microphones
Audix microphones cover vocals, drums, brass, woodwinds, and instrument amplification. The D-Series dynamics handle extreme SPL without distortion, making them go-to choices for toms, snare, and kick. The i5 is a workhorse for snare and guitar cabs, with a tight cardioid pattern and minimal proximity effect. For vocals, the OM series condensers deliver smooth midrange and extended top end without harshness. The SCX25A large-diaphragm condenser is a studio favourite for vocals and acoustic instruments, offering low self-noise and a natural frequency response. Audix also produces miniature clip-on mics for drums and percussion, designed to stay in place and out of the way during performance.
Wireless Systems
Audix wireless systems pair their capsule technology with UHF transmission for reliable, interference-free operation. The AP61 and AP62 bodypack transmitters work with lavalier and headset mics, while the R61 and R62 receivers offer true diversity reception and straightforward frequency coordination. These systems are built for houses of worship, corporate events, and touring rigs where dropout is not an option. Audix wireless maintains the same sonic character as their wired mics, with no compression or coloration in the signal path.
Microphone Stands and Accessories
Audix manufactures boom stands, desktop stands, and mounting hardware designed to work seamlessly with their microphone line. The DCLIP and DVICE drum mic clips provide secure mounting on rims and hoops without slipping or rattling. Their stand adapters and shock mounts are machined from metal, not plastic, and built to survive years of setup and teardown. Audix also offers custom cables and replacement parts, so you can keep your mics in service without replacing entire units.
