Do-it-all Dynamic Mic
When Sweetwater studio and live sound engineers need a single dynamic mic to cover the whole gig, many reach for the Audix i5. It excels as a workhorse instrument mic, equally adept on a snare, guitar cab, or horn section, and its cardioid pickup pattern keeps sound tight and focused with minimal bleed. Audix's Very Low Mass (VLM) diaphragm gives the mic a fast, accurate transient response, and its wide 50Hz–16kHz frequency response, plus the ability to handle SPLs above 140dB without distorting, give the i5 a highly clean and natural sound. Built with a zinc-alloy body, dent-resistant steel grille, and gold-plated XLR connector, the durable i5 is designed to deliver quality sound, gig after gig, session after session.
