The Audix SCX25A Microphone is perfect from drum overheads, pianos, and acoustic stringed instruments, providing an elegant design and a patented capsule suspension system. By successfully minimizing acoustic reflections and diffractions, the SCX25A delivers a pure, open air sound with exceptional detail and realism.
The Audix SCX25A Microphone features a uniquely shock-mounted capsule within an intricate machined brass ring, and is completely isolated from the mic body and electronics. The SCX25-A is consistent when responding to on and off-axis signals. This mic exhibits outstanding phase coherence and minimal proximity effect. With a wide cardioid polar pattern, the Audix SCX25A enables the sound engineer to blend the sound of the instrument or vocal with the sound of the room. The Audix SCX25A large diaphragm microphone will handle SPLs in excess of 135 dB and provides up to 20 dB of ambient noise rejection.
Affectionately referred to as "The Lollipop," the Audix SCX25A cardioid studio condenser microphone is perfectly suited to capture the sound of acoustic instruments such as pianos, guitars, vibes, woodwinds, brass, percussion toys, drums, orchestra and symphony sections.

A very natural sound
May 1st 2011I'm fortunate enough to have many great mics in my closet--ribbons, cardiods, dynamics, hybrids. But I must say, the SCX25 sounds different than ANY of them--and I don't mean that in a bad way. Rencenty, I was auditioning mics for a voiceover segment of an instructional video I was working on. I wanted to try to match a certain full, open sound that the source-recorded sound had. Interestingly, in my studio, the same mic that I'd used to record the source sound just didn't sound right. And neither did ANY of the other mics I tried, except the Audix. It had some magic the others lacked. This isn't to say that it's right for everything. But if you're looking for a mic with a pleasant, well balanced, open and unique sound, try auditioning this medium-priced Audix mic.
