AUDIX OM7 Details top
Produced in the mid-90s primarily for concert
rock touring bands with exceptionally loud
stage volumes, the OM7 has earned reputation
in the pro sound industry as being the “ultimate
gain before feedback” microphone.
The OM7, which is designed with an unconventionally
low output level (8-10 dB lower than
typical dynamic mics), has a built-in pad
which allows for the natural full audio range of
the capsule to be utilized.
On a mixing console with proper head room,
the OM7 will handle sound pressure levels in
excess of 140 dB without distortion. The performance
characteristics of the OM7 allow it to
be placed in close proximity to drums and guitar
cabs, with minimal bleed, and tremendous
resistance to feedback.
