The ADX50 is a pre-polarized condenser microphone designed to handle a wide variety of live, studio and broadcast applications. Characterized with a cardioid pickup pattern and a smooth uniform response over a frequency range of 40-20k Hz, the ADX50 is precision machined from solid brass with a low reflective black e-coat finish. Low noise electronic circuitry, low impedance, and balanced output allow interference-free performance even with long cable runs. The ADX50 is road-worthy and capable of reproducing high sound pressure levels of 132dB.
