Frequently Asked Questions
What type of microphone is the PRO25AX?
The PRO25AX is a rugged dynamic hypercardioid microphone designed for high-SPL percussion and instruments with warm low-frequency response and excellent presence peak.
What does the isolation clamp provide?
The included isolation clamp provides shock resistance and allows flexible, accurate instrument positioning without external stands, protecting the mic from vibration and handling noise.
What is a presence peak, and why is it useful?
A presence peak is a frequency boost that adds clarity and articulation to instruments. The PRO25AX is tuned for this characteristic, making percussive sounds cut through in a mix.
Which percussion instruments work best with the PRO25AX?
The PRO25AX excels on kick drums, toms, snare drums, cymbals, amps, and other high-SPL percussion sources that benefit from warm lows and punchy presence.
How does the hypercardioid pattern isolate drums in a kit?
The tight pickup rejects spill from other drums and instruments, allowing each drum to be individually miced and balanced during mixing without cross-talk.
Can the PRO25AX be used on amplified bass or guitar amps?
Yes, the warm low-end response and high-SPL capability make the PRO25AX excellent for bass amp micing and electric guitar amplifier capture.
What advantage does the isolation clamp offer in a live setting?
The clamp positions the mic precisely on the instrument or amp without requiring a separate stand, reducing setup time and eliminating vibration transfer from the floor.
