Handheld Hypercardioid Dynamic Microphone With On Off Switch For Live Vocals
The Audix OM2S is a handheld hypercardioid dynamic microphone built for live sound, rehearsal spaces, houses of worship, and stage performances where clear vocal projection and controlled pickup are essential. Featuring a built-in on/off switch, this wired vocal microphone gives singers, speakers, and presenters convenient control while delivering focused sound with strong feedback rejection.
Hypercardioid Pattern For Maximum Feedback Control
Designed with a tight hypercardioid polar pattern, the OM2S minimizes stage bleed, monitor spill, and unwanted room ambience. This directional response helps achieve higher gain before feedback, making it an excellent choice for small to mid-sized PA systems and high-volume stage environments. The controlled pickup pattern keeps vocals present and intelligible even in challenging acoustic spaces.
Dynamic Element With High SPL Handling And Fast Transients
At the heart of the OM2S is a dynamic capsule engineered with a responsive diaphragm that reacts quickly to vocal transients. It handles sound pressure levels up to 140 dB, allowing it to capture powerful vocals, amplified instruments, and energetic performances without distortion. The frequency response of 50 Hz to 16 kHz includes a subtle low-end rise around 150 Hz and a defined presence boost above 2 kHz for clarity and articulation.
Integrated On Off Switch For Convenient Mic Control
The built-in on/off switch makes the OM2S ideal for public speaking, worship services, conferences, and shared microphone environments. Performers and presenters can mute the microphone between songs or speeches without relying on a mixing console. This feature is especially useful for mobile DJs, event hosts, and rental production applications.
Rugged Metal Construction For Touring And Stage Use
Constructed with a zinc alloy body and a dent-resistant steel mesh grille, the OM2S is built to withstand regular stage use and transport. The gold-plated 3-pin XLR connector ensures reliable connectivity with most professional mixers, audio interfaces, and microphone preamps. Low handling noise further improves performance for handheld vocal use.
Designed For Professional Live Sound And Studio Applications
Suitable for vocalists, spoken word performers, worship leaders, and presenters, the OM2S also works well on guitar cabinets and select instruments when isolation is needed. Designed, assembled, and tested in the USA, this dynamic vocal microphone includes a mic clip and carrying pouch for added convenience.
