Audix MICROPOD18 Micro Series Gooseneck Microphone

Professional Cardioid Podium Microphone System for Clear Speech Reinforcement

The Audix MicroPod18 is a condenser gooseneck podium microphone designed to provide reliable, high-clarity speech capture in lecture halls, houses of worship, courtrooms, conference rooms, and boardrooms. Combining the M1250B Micro Series cardioid condenser capsule with an 18-inch flexible gooseneck and included flange mount, this system delivers a complete installed sound solution for podiums, pulpits, desks, and presentation spaces.

Cardioid Pickup Pattern for Controlled Sound Capture

Featuring a cardioid polar pattern, the MicroPod18 focuses on the speaker’s voice while reducing unwanted room noise and off-axis sound. This directional response helps minimize feedback and ambient distractions, making it ideal for live sound reinforcement, public speaking, streaming, and recording applications in acoustically reflective environments.

Integrated Condenser Capsule with Built In Output Stage

The M1250B microphone includes a miniature condenser capsule and integrated output electronics housed within the microphone body. This streamlined design removes the need for bulky external power modules or preamps while remaining fully compatible with standard 48V phantom power supplied by professional mixers, DSP systems, and audio interfaces.

Wide Frequency Response for Natural Voice Reproduction

With a frequency range of 80 Hz to 20 kHz, the MicroPod18 captures speech with clarity, presence, and detail. The condenser element offers high sensitivity and smooth response across the vocal spectrum, ensuring intelligibility for sermons, lectures, panel discussions, corporate presentations, and government meetings.

18 Inch Flexible Gooseneck for Precise Positioning

The included 18-inch MGN18 gooseneck allows presenters to position the microphone exactly where it performs best. The flexible design provides quiet adjustment and stable placement, maintaining consistent audio pickup throughout extended sessions without distracting movement or mechanical noise.

Surface Mount Installation with Standard XLR Connectivity

A built-in XLR male output at the base enables quick connection to professional sound systems using standard microphone cables. The included flange mount supports secure surface installation on podiums and desks, creating a clean, permanent microphone setup suitable for installed AV systems.
