Versatile Mic for Spoken Word Applications
In need of a quality mic for broadcasting, podcasting, or voice-over work? Sweetwater content creators cite the Audix PDX520 dynamic microphone as an impressive, viable solution. Inspired by its big brother, the PDX720, the PDX520 was thoughtfully engineered by the capable team at Audix to reproduce a natural voice sound, making this mic an ideal choice for long-format content where spoken intelligibility and comfort are of utmost importance to the listener. The PDX520 sports a cardioid polar pattern to ensure superb sound isolation that sports excellent off-axis rejection. Additionally, the PDX520's default gain level eliminates the need to raise the mic's signal via in-line preamp boosters, and its pair of 2-position switches enable you to quickly alter its low-cut and presence boost, thus reducing your future amount of post-production work. Finally, the PDX520 is rounded out by an internal vibration-dampening system, a solid metal body, and an integrated attachment arm for both the mic stand and XLR connectors.
