Complete Podium Microphone Solution For Professional Speech Applications
The Audix MicroPod12 is a fully integrated podium microphone system designed for clear, controlled speech reinforcement in lecture halls, houses of worship, courtrooms, boardrooms, and conference spaces. By combining a Micro Series condenser capsule with a precision gooseneck and mounting hardware, this system delivers a clean, professional solution for permanent or semi-permanent installations where speech intelligibility matters most.
Cardioid Condenser Capsule For Clear Vocal Pickup
At the core of the MicroPod12 is a Micro Series cardioid condenser microphone capsule engineered for accurate voice reproduction. The cardioid pickup pattern focuses on the speaker while reducing off-axis noise, room reflections, and feedback. With a wide frequency response extending from approximately 80 Hz to 20 kHz, spoken word remains natural, articulate, and consistent across a variety of room acoustics.
Self-Contained Electronics With Direct XLR Output
The MicroPod system integrates the condenser capsule and output electronics directly into the microphone body. This design eliminates the need for external preamps or inline power modules, simplifying installation and reducing cable clutter. The XLR male output at the base connects directly to mixers, DSPs, or microphone preamps using standard phantom power, making system integration straightforward for installers and technicians.
Flexible 12 Inch Gooseneck For Precise Positioning
The included 12-inch gooseneck provides smooth, quiet adjustment and stable positioning during use. Speakers can easily fine-tune microphone placement for optimal vocal pickup without introducing handling noise. This flexible design is ideal for podiums, lecterns, pulpits, and desks where consistent microphone placement improves speech clarity and presentation confidence.
Flange Mount For Secure Surface Installation
A low-profile flange mount is included for secure surface mounting on podiums, tables, or countertops. This mounting option allows for a clean, professional appearance while ensuring the microphone remains firmly positioned during daily use. The MicroPod12 is well suited for fixed installations in environments that demand durability, reliability, and a polished aesthetic.
Designed For Installed Sound And Corporate Environments
Built for long-term use in installed sound systems, the MicroPod12 offers consistent performance in demanding public speaking environments. Its compact form factor, low visual profile, and dependable audio quality make it a trusted solution for AV integrators, facilities managers, and sound engineers working in speech-focused venues.
