Miniature Supercardioid Condenser Microphone for Focused Audio Capture
The Audix M1255BW-S is a compact 12mm supercardioid condenser microphone designed for situations where precise pickup and discreet placement matter. With a body length of just 2.1 inches, this miniature microphone delivers high-output performance for capturing vocals and instruments in choir setups, stage productions, and installed sound environments while remaining visually unobtrusive.
Supercardioid Pickup Pattern for Maximum Isolation
Built around a supercardioid polar pattern, the M1255BW-S focuses tightly on the intended sound source while significantly reducing off-axis noise. This controlled pickup makes it ideal for group vocals, overhead cymbals, podium speech, and ambient room capture in acoustically challenging spaces. The pattern helps improve clarity and gain before feedback in live sound and reinforcement applications.
High Output Design for Long Cable Runs
The microphone’s high-output circuitry supports longer cable runs without signal degradation, making it suitable for permanent installations and larger performance spaces. This capability allows reliable connection to mixers and audio interfaces even when the microphone is positioned far from the sound system, maintaining consistent audio quality throughout the signal chain.
Wide Frequency Response for Vocals and Instruments
The 12mm condenser capsule offers a wide and balanced frequency response that captures both vocal articulation and instrumental detail. Whether used for choir miking, percussion, acoustic instruments, or speech reinforcement, the M1255BW-S delivers natural sound reproduction with strong intelligibility across a range of applications.
Integrated Preamplifier with RF Protection
Powered by standard 48V phantom power, the internal miniature preamplifier provides low-noise operation and stable output. The design includes shielding that helps prevent radio frequency interference from mobile devices and wireless equipment, ensuring dependable performance in conference rooms, houses of worship, theaters, and live event venues.
Detachable Cable and Included Mounting Accessories
The M1255BW-S includes a detachable 25-foot cable with a mini XLR female connector at the microphone and a standard XLR male connector for easy integration with professional audio gear. Accessories such as a microphone stand adapter, hanging clip, and foam windscreen support flexible mounting options for overhead, stand-mounted, or suspended use.
Professional Solution for Live and Installed Sound
Finished in white for clean visual integration, the M1255BW-S is well suited for environments where aesthetics are as important as performance. From choir lofts and stages to conference spaces and performance halls, this miniature condenser microphone provides focused, reliable audio capture without drawing attention.
