A quintessential tool for professional audio capture, the Audix MG18 is an 18-inch miniature gooseneck condenser microphone that excels in a variety of settings, including podium speeches, presentations, meetings, and teleconferencing scenarios. Renowned for its crystal-clear audio reproduction and straightforward operation, the MG18 is adept at accurately capturing and reproducing vocal nuances from a comfortable distance, ensuring speakers are heard with pristine clarity.
The MG18 distinguishes itself with a uniformly controlled cardioid polar pattern, expertly isolating the speaker's voice from ambient noise within the environment, whether it be a busy conference room or a live stage setting. This feature is particularly beneficial for maintaining focus on the primary audio source, providing a cleaner and more professional sound output.
Boasting a broad frequency response range of 60Hz to 19kHz, the MG18 delivers a natural and lifelike sound profile, complete with exceptional transient response. This ensures that every subtle detail of the spoken word is conveyed with precision, from the lowest tones to the highest pitches.
Designed with meticulous attention to detail, the MG18 gooseneck microphone system is equipped with advanced dual preamp circuitry. One circuit is ingeniously housed within the capsule, while the other is integrated into the base of the XLR connector. This balanced internal circuitry is the cornerstone of the microphone's ability to isolate the audio path from electromagnetic interference, hum, and noise.
Furthermore, the MG18 is engineered to offer robust protection against RF interference and spurious emissions caused by cell phones and other wireless GSM devices, safeguarding your audio from unwanted disruptions.
Installation is made effortless with the included flange mount (TM1218), allowing for secure and stable mounting of the gooseneck. The microphone's construction is a testament to Audix's commitment to quality, featuring a precision-machined brass body that ensures durability and longevity. Additionally, the field-replaceable capsule and electronics underscore the MG18's adaptability and ease of maintenance.
The MG18 is designed to operate seamlessly on phantom power ranging from 18 to 52 Volts, accommodating a wide array of professional audio setups. Its non-reflective black matte finish not only adds to its sleek aesthetic but also minimizes visual distractions during use.
In summary, the Audix MG18 is a professional-grade microphone that combines superior sound quality, operational simplicity, and advanced technical features to deliver an unparalleled audio experience for speakers and presenters in any professional setting.
