Superb sound and versatility
The Audix M1255B is a high-output cardioid condenser microphone delivering superb sound. It has a fully integrated preamp and detachable cable, as well as strong shielding from interference. It’s a great overhead mic for choir and group vocals, on acoustic instruments, for ambient room miking, symphonic area miking, speech presentations, cymbals, and more. The M1255B features interchangeable capsules – Audix makes optional hypercardioid, supercardioid, and omni capsules – adding to the versatility of this great-sounding mic.
Comes with an 84″ carbon fiber boom
The MicroBoom arm combines with the M1255B condenser microphone to become an ideal solution for discreet, overhead miking. This 84″ carbon fiber boom attaches to any microphone stand, and it weighs in at only 2.5 ounces. Carbon fiber is one of the most lightweight and durable materials on the planet – which is why it’s being used to make parts for race bikes, aerospace crafts, motorcycles, and more. The MicroBoom is certainly discrete, but it’s also rugged – it has a mini-XLR connector to securely hold the microphone in place while high-quality Mogami cable is used internally to deliver excellent sound to the bottom of the boom, where a mini-XLR male connector awaits.
